Although Robert Downey Jr. has already been confirmed to play Sherlock Holmes. Therefore, there is another role for the 39-year-old that would make sense for him. As the upcoming film is set in the USA, and the filmmakers were looking for an American industrialist, who is the enemy of Sherlock Holmes. There is a strong possibility for the Man of Steel actor to be the rival of the genius British detective.
