"It feels a bit like a relay team," Law said about his dynamic alongside Robert Downey Jr. "He leads, then he hands the baton off to me, but it's done subconsciously."

"I also think there are two kinds of performers," Downey said. "I've heard of, and I guess I've experience the kind that are like, 'You want to play ping pong? Because I'll kick your ass!' Everything is about 'I'll do it better than you.' Whereas [Law and I] become this third thing, this brotherhood."

As for the chances of a sequel, Downey added: "We're clinging onto this thing. It's going to have claw marks when we let go of it." To which Jude Law jokingly replied, "My aim is that by the end, I'll actually be enormously fat and blumbering around. I'll be the big old Watson that everybody wants to see. 'Oh dear, I've just fallen over!'"







"I think the trouble we ran into is in the books, they refer to him more than they actually see and hear from him, which keeps giving him more power. In a cinematic sense, that won't work. In a book, that's great. I think that was one of the struggles."

"He's always considered to be the spider at the center of this vast web. We were able to play with the idea, in a period film, what if all of these conspiracies were true and what if they could all be linked to a single individual. And that's what made it so great."


Sherlock Holmes: A Game Of Shadows is set to be released on December 16, later this year!

I didn't really care for the first film (it was just terribly average), and I much prefer the new BBC show with Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman, but I definitely am looking forward to this.

I enjoyed the actors in their roles, and the reinvention of it, so hopefully this film will be less typical, and more focused on plot than explosions.
