Sherlock Holmes (November 20)
http://media.filmschoolrejects.com/images/Anticipated09-4.jpg
Talent: Guy Ritchie (Director), Robert Downey Jr., Jude Law, Mark Strong
After his all-over-the-map performances of 2008, all of which beloved, Robert Downey Jr. is eyeing 2009 as his year to bring back the detective’s cap. He’s shedding the armor of Iron Man (for now, at least) and the ridiculous hilarity of Kirk Lazarus and heading back to the late-nineteenth century to sword fight, box, solve mysteries and undoubtedly get the girl. Better yet, he’s teaming up with Guy Ritchie, who should be able to mix some period piece details with his high-energy style to make for one wild ride. That, and Mark Strong as a bad guy is becoming a welcomed hot trend (see RocknRolla for proof). - Neil Miller

I, for one, as an avid Robert Downey Jr. fan and a huge fan of Sherlock Holmes, am very excited for this.
