Sherlock Holmes News, Minor Picture Update!
Heelloo there, Donnia here. :) I know there hasn't been much news or updates on RDJ (or maybe I'm just being lazy), but that changes today! :D
According to EmpireOnline, Sherlock Holmes 2 is getting a start date! Yay!
Also, here some minor picture updates. I know I'm super late on these, but its better to show than to not at all. :)
Rob was seen buying Avengers comics on June 2. Looks like someone's trying to catch up ;)
And on June 23, Rob attended the debut of John Baldessari's new art exhibit with his wifey <3
According to EmpireOnline, Sherlock Holmes 2 is getting a start date! Yay!
It's been all quiet on Baker Street lately, but not for too much longer. According to Dr. Watson himself, Jude Law, cameras will start rolling on Sherlock Holmes 2 substantially earlier than the mooted December start date.
Talking us through his chockers-looking schedule for the rest of the year, Law revealed that principal photography will kick off in the autumn. "It looks likely that we're going to shoot the second Sherlock Holmes in October," he told Empire's own Damon Wise, suggesting that Guy Ritchie and his writers aren't too far off a completed script and some intriguing casting announcements.
So who will be stepping into Mark Strong's brogues to provide Victorian London with a little violent psychopathy? “I don't know yet where the story will go,” Law told us, “but there are a lot of Sherlock Holmes novels to choose from.”
Law was making an appearance at the 45th Karlovy Vary International Film Festival to accept the prestigious Festival President's Award, a very fetching metal and glass statuette, and introduce a screening of Anthony Minghella's The Talented Mr. Ripley, the film that arguably put him on the movie map. But in his downtime, he was able to fill us in on the projects he has in the pipeline: after a relative break from the spotlight this year, he's about to start three very impressive movies back to back.
"I've had a long period of doing nothing, which has been self-imposed and wonderfully rewarding, I have to say, but mostly so because I've got a very busy second half of the year coming up. I'm working with [Martin] Scorsese on his new film Hugo Cabret, which I believe is his first film for children. I don't want to give too much away, but I play Hugo Cabret's father." Then comes Sherlock Holmes 2, followed by Steven Soderbergh's actioner Contagion. "It's an ensemble piece about the spread of a H1N1-type disease on an international scale. So it's going to be a very busy second half of the year; very lazy first half of the year.”
When Empire visited the set of the first Sherlock Holmes two years ago, there was some concern from the key players that the film would make enough money to convince Warners to make another. Law, however, claims he was unaffected. “I had so much fun making Sherlock Holmes that the question of how much money it would make just wasn't one of my priorities,” he told us. “Of course I was really pleased it was such a success but mostly because that will give me the opportunity to work with Robert and Guy again.”Sounds great, right? Yes!

Be on the watch out for new Robert movies!
Hey all! Olivia here! Yes, I will admit. I had forgotten this little gem of a website. But I am here now, and I bring news :)
So, unless you have been living under a rock for the past few weeks (i'm not here to judge) you have probably been hearing a lot of rumors involving RDJ and various movies.
The newest and biggest rumor is Robert staring in a movie named Oz: The Great and Powerful. Oz is said to be a prequel to Wizard Of Oz, and will be directed by Sam Raimi. Robert would be playing Oz before he became the great and powerful wizard he was in WoO. I personally would love to see Robert as this character, but Sam Raimi and the idea of messing with Wizard of Oz rubs me the wrong way.
This is what he said about the project at the Gene Siskel Film Institute when he accepted their Renaissance Award. This is from the Chicago Tribune:
When asked about reports linking him to the role of the Wizard in Disney's "Wizard of Oz" prequel, "Oz: The Great and Powerful," the 45-year-old actor said he "might" be on board the 3-D film.
“Now Sam Raimi looks like he’s going to be at helm of it,” said Downey, who attended the benefit with his wife and Schaumburg native Susan. “My management firm says it might be a go. I’ll hook up with Sam and see what he thinks.”
The next movie idea floating around is for a little film named Gravity, which Robert has been rumored to play a supporting role in. Honestly? I have no idea what the news on this is. I'm not even really sure what's it about. I think something about space and NASA and whatnot.
And last, but certainly not least is the thought of Robert playing Edgar Allen Poe in a movie. Which. I. Would. Love. But it's the one least likely of coming true. Robert has shown his interest in it, as well as Sylvester Stallone (who wrote the script and wants to direct), but the only problem is getting the idea off the ground. I really hope this movie pulls through. RDJ playing Poe sounds brilliant, and Scorsese has even called Stallones script "Oscar worthy"
Seems that everyone wants a piece of Downey! Plus we still have Due Date, Sherlock 2, AND AVENGERS!<3 So expect to be seeing a lot of Robert soon!
