    Sherlock Holmes Strikes back

    stolen from
    Ready for a 21st century twist to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's classic literary sleuth Sherlock Holmes? How about having his descendant be a ladies man who uses the family's keen sense of intuition to pick up chicks at swank London clubs? Or do you fancy the notion of a sexy female Dr. Watson as Holmes' sidekick?

    That's the idea behind HOLMES AND WATSON, a pitch that was sold to New Line Cinema by producers William Sherak and Jason Shuman (DARKNESS FALLS). In this modern day twist on the Holmes/Watson partnership, it's Dr. Jane Watson who must recruit Sherlock's great-great-grandson to rise above the skirtchasing and use his sleuthing skills to solve the murder of Watson's best friend. Comic book scribe-turned-screenwriter James Robinson (THE LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLMEN) is the frontrunner to write the HOLMES AND WATSON script.

    NOOOOO PLZ dont drag Holmes though the Hollywood mudd.

    I've never been a huge fan of Sherlock Holmes, but I've got nothing against it.

    This new movie sounds like an interesting spin.
    If you can stay calm, while all around you is chaos...then you probably haven't completely understood the seriousness of the situation.

    This new Sherlock Holmes stuff is disgrace for Doyle's legacy (like latest Hallmark stuff)

    Last good Sherlock was Jeremy Brett.... but I'm waiting for DVD release of Young Sherlock Holmes too.

    Considering this news was from two years ago, I'm pretty certain it's not happening.
    You're waiting for a train, a train that will take you far away. You know where you hope this train will take you, but you can't be sure. But it doesn't matter - because we'll be together.

    Well let's hope not.
