‘Sherlock Holmes’ Actors Recalled For Reshoots

The Jude'stache rises from the dead
Tuesday, August 18th, 2009

Robert Downey, Jr., Jude Law and Rachel McAdams have been recalled to the London, England set of the Guy Ritchie directed film Sherlock Holmes. It’s not entirely clear why reshoots for the film have been ordered but it’s generally not a good sign when a director has to reshoot scenes for the film. At least one good thing comes from these reshoots … the resurrection of Jude Law’s infamous Jude’stache:


It was a sad, sad day last May when I was forced to Peace the Spork Out the Jude’stache … so it’s nice to see it alive and well and back in action. Sure this Jude’stache is a fake Jude’stache worn only for the reshoots but it looks so much like the real Jude’stache that I don’t think we have any cause for complaint. Again, it is worrisome that Sherlock Holmes requires some reshoots — after all, X-Men Origins: Wolverine had the same problem, ordered some reshoots and, well, the movie still sucked. One hopes that these reshoots for Sherlock will make the film better and not worse. It is nice to see the gang in full costume again, if for only a short while. It wasn’t until I saw these new photos that I realized how much I missed the Jude’stache.

Robert Downey, Jr. Reveals Sherlock’s Man Crush On Watson

"Circumstantial Homosexuality"
Monday, July 27th, 2009

Speaking at the panel discussion for his upcoming film Sherlock Holmes at 2009 San Diego Comic-Con this weekend, Robert Downey, Jr. revealed to fans that there may be some overt man-on-man “love” (ie. affection) going on in the film. While he didn’t go so far as to say that Sherlock Holmes and his sidekick Dr. John H. Watson would be lovers, he did reveal that the men are very, very close in the film … as a result of, what he calls, “circumstantial homosexuality”. Shoot, whatever he calls it … I’m all for it!


Will Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson be the latest bromance to hit Hollywood? Robert Downey Jr., who plays Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s classic fictional character opposite Jude Law’s Watson in Guy Ritchie’s remake of Sherlock Holmes thinks he and Law have some sexy chemistry together. “It’s called circumstantial homosexuality,” he jokingly told the press at Comic-Con Friday, after leading lady Rachel McAdams suggested the film’s central love story is really between the sleuth and his sidekick. The two actors took to each other even before Law signed on to the part. Downey was sent to meet his future costar and “sell” him on the role and “Jude walks down the hall and my assistant – who never cares about anything – is standing in the hall and she’s like, ‘Oh my God, there he is!’ He was dressed in that kind of fabulous, super expensive, under-dressed way. “I said, ‘Dude’ – and literally before he said he was going to do the movie, before he said that he was available, before he said that he either did or didn’t want to be courted, we just started talking like two serious actors about what would need to happen to make this work as a piece of straight drama. We just became really close really quickly, because we just rolled up our sleeves and started working from jump.” Downey said Law, who is currently performing Hamlet on stage in London, “is so the right arm of this movie.” But good thing for the ladies, the film isn’t just about male bonding. Downey shares some romantic moments with McAdams – but “not enough for my taste,” he said.

Oh man … how awesome is this. You gotta love actors that are secure enough in their manhood that they can willingly and believingly play male characters that show love and affection for one another without it necessarily being a gay lovestory. While I would have no problem with Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson being lovers, that development doesn’t really jibe with the lore that we all know and love. That said, the men are very close and I’m happy to know that that closeness will be respected in the film version of the book series. I have full confidence that RDJ and Jude will do great justice to the beloved characters that they portray … and if they want to take the relationship to a bromantic level, who are we to argue?

Rachel McAdams & Josh Lucas Go For A Bike Ride

McLucas is still not as cute as McGosling but whatevs
Thursday, April 30th, 2009

Here are a few pics of Rachel McAdams and her new lover Josh Lucas enjoying a bike ride together in Manhattan this week trying to look as cute as possible …


… tho try as they might, together they still aren’t as adorable as McGosling were back in the day. Trust me, I’ve tried to jump on board with these two as a couple — and I am happy that they are together — but my heart still aches for the days when Rachel McAdams and Ryan Gosling were a couple. But … it’s not really for us to decide who Rachel should be dating (which is lucky for Josh). She’s now attached to Mr. Lucas and I guess we should just learn to accept it. I promise, I’ll keep trying to do just that.

Rachel McAdams & Josh Lucas Lookin’ To Shack Up?

Moving forward
Friday, April 17th, 2009

Well, well now … what have we here? Could it be that newish couple Rachel McAdams and Josh Lucas are lookin’ to take their relationship to the next level? Here are new photos of McLucas checking out apartments in NY’s East Village this week … together:


Now, to be fair, it should be noted that just because the couple are looking at real estate together doesn’t necessarily mean that they are planning to live together. It could be that Rachel is in the market for some new digs (you will note that she is carrying paperwork in the second photo) and Josh was just being a supportive boyfriend along for the ride. But, I suppose it is just as equally possible that the couple are lookin’ at a new place to share together as their lurvenest. I don’t recall if Rachel ever moved in with Ryan Gosling when those two dated so I’m not sure if living together is something that Rachel likes to do with all of her men. Personally, it seems a bit early for these two to be living together (as if anyone asked me for my opinion) but they know what is best for them. Do y’all think they’re planning to take their relationship to this next level?

Rachel McAdams & Josh Lucas Are At It Again

PDA alert!
Wednesday, March 11th, 2009

Last week we got our first look at hot new couple Rachel McAdams and Josh Lucas showing the world just how much in lurve they are with one another as they were snapped in a passionate lip-lock on the public streets of Toronto, Canada. Clearly, the couple are still very much in lurve because here, again, are more photos of the couple swappin’ spit again … but this time, the kissing looks much less dramatic:


Those last photos we saw looked a bit … showy. These pics look more natural and sweet. While my heart still yearns for a resurrection of McGosling I think I can see Josh’s appeal to Rachel. With this skull cap on and from far away (while you squint your eyes), Josh looks like an older version of Ryan. Perhaps Rachel is in the market for a more mature and weathered man? It would seem that she deffo has a type … and she looks happy. Sigh. I think I can warm up to these two as a serious couple. What do y’all think?

Rachel McAdams & Josh Lucas Get Smoochy In Public

P.D.A-OK
Wednesday, March 4th, 2009

Yesterday we got our first look at new Hollywood couple Rachel McAdams and Josh Lucas lookin’ all, well, coupley together on the streets of Toronto, Canada … and today we get to see a few more photos of the couple publicly displaying their affection for one another … behold:


Oh yeah, by the look of that dramatic embrace, you can tell that McLucas is ready for the world to know that they are so lurve. Not that I’m discounting the genuineness of their new romance but who embraces and kisses one another like this on a public street? In the first two photos, it looks as if Rachel was aware that they were being photographed … I’m guessing that they used the opportunity to let the cat out of the bag. They do look cute together … not as cute as Rachel looks with Ryan Gosling, mind you … but cute nonetheless. Long live McLucas! Unless, you know, McGosling decide to give things another go ;)

Rachel McAdams & Josh Lucas Are The Hot New Couple

Behold the birth of McLucas
Tuesday, March 3rd, 2009

It would seem that the dunzoness of McGosling (Rachel McAdams and Ryan Gosling) is really real because Rachel McAdams appears to have hooked up with a new romantic interest. Rachel has been spotted canoodling with actor Josh Lucas in her hometown of Toronto, Canada letting the world know that the couple are an item. Out with McGosling and in with McLucas:


It’s confirmed by Hollywood North’s John White — Canadian starlet Rachel McAdams and actor Josh Lucas are a couple. The two Hollywood stars, who have been hotly pursued (unsuccessfully) by New York paparazzi in the past month, spent some alone time in Toronto this past weekend. They went on yoga outings, romantic walks and even had a bite to eat at the same restaurant McAdams and her then boyfriend, Canadian actor Ryan Gosling, were photographed at last summer by Hollywood North. McAdams, star of the ultimate chick flick The Notebook, and Josh — who can be seen in Sweet Home Alabama and Glory Road — may be a couple, but will they have the same spark and popular appeal as Gosling and McAdams?

While I quite like Josh Lucas and think that he is a cutie, my heart still yearns for the days when Rachel and Ryan were happily attached. Thanks to The Notebook, McGosling will forever be meant to be together in my book. I’m sure I’ll get over that feeling … if this new romance with Josh Lucas stands the test of time. As it stands, the couple have only been together for a few weeks now. We’ll have to see if they’re really in it for the long haul. McLucas are deffo in the happy honeymoon stage. Click HERE to watch a video report that shows more photos of the couple lookin’ all coupley.
