Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows Opens in US Theaters December 16th

Sherlock Holmes (2011)

This Friday, December 16th, the sequel to 2009's Sherlock Holmes opens in US theaters. Robert Downey Jr. reprises his role as the consulting detective in Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows. Jude Law returns as his friend and sleuthing partner Dr. John Watson.

New to this film is the character of Professor James Moriarty (played by Jared Harris). Though Sherlock Holmes has always been the smartest man in the room, Moriarty is Holmes' intellectual equal. But his capacity for evil, coupled with a complete lack of conscience, may actually give him an advantage over the renowned detective.

When the Crown Prince of Austria is found dead, the evidence, as construed by Inspector Lestrade, points to suicide. But Sherlock Holmes deduces that the prince has been the victim of murder — a murder that is only one piece of a larger and much more portentous puzzle, designed by Professor Moriarty. The cunning Moriarty is always one step ahead of Holmes as he spins a web of death and destruction — all part of a greater plan that, if he succeeds, will change the course of history.

Watch a featurette for the film below.
