According to a latest report, the British actor and TV presenter Stephen Fry is heading to the big screen because he was added to the cast of Sherlock Holmes 2.
Fry will play Sherlock's older brother Mycroft in the Guy Ritchie-directed project.
"I'm playing Mycroft in the sequel to the Sherlock Holmes film Guy Ritchie directed with Robert Downey Jr., and that sort of part is fun, but just once in a while to play a genuine all round sort of lead figure with complexity and tragedy and wit and all the sort of things that Oscar [Wilde] had was a once in a lifetime thrill," Fry said.
Downey Jr. is due to reprise the role of Sherlock for the movie, alongside Jude Law has his sidekick Watson.
Fry has appeared in a number of big roles in his career — as well as a reoccurring role in TV series Bones, he is also well known for the 1997 docu-drama movie Wilde, about the life of author Oscar Wilde.by fw editor |
