Robert Downey Jr. is portraying Sherlock Holmes


After portraying Tony Stark a.k.a Iron Man, Robert Downey Jr. is said to be portraying detective Sherlock Holmes which will be out in 2010 and will be directed by Guy Ritchie. But before Robert wore the iron suit and became superhero he had already proven his acting capability and was able to be recognized by the Academy with his nomination for Best Actor in 1992 with the film Chaplin.

He had also worked with Oscar Best Actress Halley Berry in Gothika, with Val Kilmer in Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and with Jake Gyllanhaal and Mark Rufallo in Zodiac. Despite of all that it was really Iron Man that made him as one of the box office actors of today.

His latest movie, Thropic Thunder with Ben Stiller and Jack Black is still out and has already reached over 100 million in the box office.
