The director's new movie - based on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's famous super-sleuth - sees Holmes engage in a homoerotic relationship with his sidekick Dr. Watson. Robert Downey Jr. - who plays the crime-busting detective opposite Jude Law's Doctor Watson - said: "We're two men who happen to be room-mates, wrestle a lot and share a bed. It's bada**." The film, to be released in November, follows the pair's efforts in foiling an underhand plot to destroy Britain - but Jude says the focus is as much on the couple's personal relationship as the criminal activities. The British actor said: "Guy wanted to make this about the relationship between Watson and Holmes. They're both mean and complicated." Bringing a feminine touch to the film is US actress Rachel McAdams. She plays femme fatale Irene Adler, who once outwitted Holmes but now needs the detective's help. |
