Director Guy Ritchie talked to Empire about the upcoming Sherlock Holmes movie at the British premiere of RocknRolla (which is due out in the UK this Friday).

“I don’t have a Watson,” confessed Ritchie. “Somebody just told me that I have Russell Crowe lined up but that’s news to me. I suspect that hasn’t happened and I’m still looking for my Watson.”

Colin Boyd of Get the Big Picture suggested Paul Giamatti or Chiwetel Ejiofor for Watson, and I think both of those would be very interesting choices.
