    Really? Thanks for this- I didn't realise they were starting so soon.

    They are filming in Freemasons Hall (where they film Spooks) and St Pauls. Last night when I walked past there was a big line outside the museum in the square for what I'm guessing was a casting call for extras.

    I will try and grab a few shots with my phone on the way back tonight.

    Intresting titbit - the trailors all have names on them - Susan Downey, Director etc but also one witj "Lord Coward"....

    Jude Law's Watson looks like he could kick Downey's Sherlock's butt. :))

    Not the typical portly fellow I'm accustomed to. He looks like a villian.

    I, for one, was never excited about Downey's casting as Holmes. These pics do nothing to change that. Being a big Conan Doyle fan, this is one flick which I'll catch on video (if they're lucky).

    For the first time in his life Jude Law actually looks like a man! :))

    Here's another pic floating around the web of Downey's Holmes in action:

    oooooooooo.jpg

    This looks like a scene out of Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels.

    I really don't know what to think of this film yet but I'm not getting a Basil Rathbone vibe from it.

    I think it was the bowler 8-) . Is this going to be a sort of Holmes Begins?

    the fact that they've got Downey in pinstripes has sold me. I'll go see it, even though I'm a HUGE fan of the Basil Rathbone versions...

    I hope not. We've already had that with Young Sherlock. One question, why is Downey Jr holding a large tuning fork? Could his piano have fallen out the window and he's tumbling after it.

    I have no doubt that this is a picture of Holmes making off with one of Mrs. Hudson's Pampered Chef cooking utensils.

    Somehow, this film being in development and production completely eluded me. Robert Downey Jr ?:)

    I think he's very good in general---and was an excellent Tony Stark---but...
