About Sherlock Holmes
The Ritchie films follow Downey's bare-knuckle Holmes and Law's Watson against Blackwood and Moriarty. The 2009 original ends at the Lords plot, and A Game of Shadows (2011) ends at the Reichenbach duel.
Two films, one arc. A third film has been in development for years with no date. The Cumberbatch series has its own separate guide.
Good to know
The series and films are different continuities. This post covers the Ritchie films only.
