Stories were going around that Brad Pitt had flown into London to shoot scenes as Moriarty in the new atrocious-looking Guy Ritchie-directed, Robert Downey, Jr.-starring Sherlock Holmes. Not so say the movie's producers.
"The report in today’s London Mirror is completely inaccurate," the statement reads. "Brad Pitt is not joining the cast of Sherlock Holmes and we're extremely pleased with the production of the film. As planned, it will be released on Christmas Day, 2009."
What did you expect them to say? "The movie sucks so many different kinds of ass that frankly we got tired of counting. We called Brad and asked him to come save our movie but he just laughed. Now we're pretty much fucked. Guess we've learned our lesson about letting Guy Ritchie anywhere near a movie script."
