This Movie Aged Surprisingly Well

Warner Bros took a massive gamble hiring the director of Snatch to reinvent the world's greatest detective. The result was a box office phenomenon that broke every rule of the Conan Doyle books.

Guy Ritchie didn't just adapt Sherlock Holmes; he turned him into a bare-knuckle boxer. Robert Downey Jr. accidentally getting knocked out by a professional wrestler. The casting of Jude Law as a badass Watson. The truth behind the Brad Pitt rumors for Professor Moriarty. How a suggestion from Coldplay’s Chris Martin led to Stephen Fry joining the cast of A Game of Shadows. And how the chess-obsessed director turned a risky adaptation into a half-billion-dollar franchise.
