Notably one of these new posters shows off Jared Harris as Professor Moriarty, whose presence was partially glimpsed in the first film, while the second has the slightly odd figure of Noomi Rapace as Sim, looking a touch menacing behind the moustached Dr. Watson.

The first film was enjoyable and benefited from Mark Strong and Eddie Marsan, who will be returning as Inspector Lestrade along with Stephen Fry who is cast as Holmes’ brother Mycroft.

A decent cast with a neat and unusual double act taking on the famous pair should make for a fun film. Christmas 2011 is when the Game of Shadows will be afoot.
