LONDON: Guy Ritchie’s new flick Sherlock Holmes is going to portray Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s legendary character in a gay way. In the film, Holmes, being played by Robert Downey Jr, is seen sharing a bed with Dr Watson, being played by Jude Law.

Holmes can also be seen enjoying some man-to-man wrestling with his close chum.

“We’re two men who happen to be room-mates, wrestle a lot and share a bed. It’s bad***,” News of the World quoted Downey Jr as saying.

Law added, “Guy wanted to make this about the relationship between Watson and Holmes. They’re both mean and complicated.”

Sherlock Holmes is famous for donning his deerstalker hat, puffing on a pipe and solving mysteries with his trusted sidekick.
