From the creator of the burly London crime dramas Snatch and RocknRolla comes what is promised to be a more athletic Holmes, as inclined to use his fists as his powers of deductive reasoning. Downey, a plausible action-movie star after Iron Man, will don the deerstalker and posh accent and transform Arthur Conan Doyle's hero into the kung fu master of Baker Street.
