The boys are back in town

Comedy GOATs Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly are reunited in the first trailer of Holmes & Watson. The duo from Step Brothers and Talladega Nights are playing Sherlock Holmes and Dr John Watson in a loose adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's detective thriller. Featuring a parody of Robert Downey Jnr's own Holmes franchise, the advert also includes mock English accents and Thin Lizzy's 'The Boys Are Back In Town' - a nod to the return of Ferrell and Reilly as co-stars. The pair haven't lead a production together since Step Brothers in 2008. Holmes And Watson also stars Rebecca Hall, Ralph Fiennes as Moriarty, Hugh Laurie as Sherlock’s brother Mycroft, and Lauren Lapkus. Get Hard's Ethan Cohen directs and the film premiers on November 9. https://youtu.be/-AKU-T7_rDA
