A BUFF SHERLOCK: WB's 'SHERLOCK HOLMES' PICS

We last saw Robert Downey, Jr.'s Sherlock Holmes in paparazzi set pics from the upcoming Guy Ritchie film. Now, however, Warner Bros has released the first two official photos from the film. The photo above features a bloodied, shirtless Holmes in some king of fighting arena. Looks like a cockfight, "Fight Club" kind of element. But who knew Holmes would be so buff?? Looks like Downey has been hitting the gym. Kudos...

The photo below features Holmes’ trusted colleague Dr. Watson, played by Jude Law. Screen scribe Anthony Peckham’s script is based upon a mixture of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s classic tales and the Lionel Wigram comic book adaptation which presents a more active version of the famous detective.

And for Warner Bros to choose this photo as one of the first photos to release is making a statement - this ain't our grandpappies' famous dick.
