While there have been a few surreptitiously taken set photos floating around online, Warner has now released the first official image from Sherlock Holmes 2, and they’ve also brought out our first proper look at The Hangover 2, along with synopses for both movie. The Sherlock image above is also the first time we’ve seen Noomi Rapace in character in her first Hollywood role, playing a French gypsy. Rapace is the new female lead, with Rachel McAdams character apparently not returning.
However while I said there was a Sherlock Holmes 2 synopsis, don’t get too excited as it tells us nothing we didn’t know, just confirming that: ‘Guy Ritchie helms a new action-packed adventure, following the world’s most famous detective, Sherlock Holmes (Robert Downey Jr.), and his longtime trusted associate, Dr. Watson (Jude Law), as they match wits with their arch-nemesis, the criminal genius Moriarty (Jared Harris).’ The film hits cinemas December 2011.

Now onto Hangover 2! The first image for that is at the bottom of this post, and here’s the official synopsis: ‘In the follow-up to the record-breaking hit comedy “The Hangover,” Phil (Bradley Cooper), Stu (Ed Helms), Alan (Zach Galifianakis) and Doug (Justin Bartha) travel to exotic Thailand for Stu’s wedding. After the unforgettable bachelor party in Las Vegas, Stu is taking no chances and has opted for a safe, subdued pre-wedding brunch. However, things don’t always go as planned. What happens in Vegas may stay in Vegas, but what happens in Bangkok can’t even be imagined.’ The Hangover 2 hits cinemas.
