French movie star Gilles Lellouche has joined the cast of Sherlock Holmes 2.
The actor’s rep confirmed the reports in Paris on Friday morning, in what will be Lellouche’s first Hollywood role.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the role is yet to be confirmed, though Lellouche told reporters: “I’m thrilled, and I’ll play a nice bad guy.”
Lellouche’s latest film Little White Lies was released in France in October. He is currently working on a screenplay for Le Jour J (D-Day).
