Jude Law is reportedly in talks to star alongside Robert Downey Jr. in Guy Ritchie’s adaptation of Sherlock Holmes.

Law is touted to play Holmes’ sidekick Dr. Watson in the forthcoming film and is expected to sign up for the part shortly, according to Daily Variety.

Ritchie denied that Russell Crowe was lined up for the role after reports surfaced earlier this month.

Production on the movie is slated to begin in October in London.

Speak Up!: Hot – or Not?

Jude Law paid a visit to war torn Afghanistan to promote Peace Day – an annual day urging global cease fire and nonviolence on September 21st, USA Today reports.

“It seemed that they really want to make this day, the Peace Day, work. And they did,” Jude tells reporters.

“People recognize the day, because they recognize that lives could be saved.” Law is in Afghanistan with director Jeremy Gilley to help produce a documentary film, called The Day After Peace.

The United Nations General Assembly adopted Peace Day in 2001, following a lobbying campaign by Gilley. Law and Gilley started filming their documentary in Afghanistan last year.

Law said the documentary, which also features Angelina Jolie, the Dalai Lama, and Annie Lennox, is the most important film he has been apart of. On his experiences in Afghanistan, Law tells reporters, “When I left Kabul last year, I was hugely moved not by the conflict that I have read so much about, but by the people’s courage and the people’s sense of hope.”

Law and Gilley, who arrived in Kabul on Sunday, are to meet President Hamid Karzai, top NATO and U.N. officials, and members of the aid community.
