Daniel Day-Lewis Joining 'Sherlock Holmes 2' ?

For the longest time now it's been rumored that Brad Pitt would play Professor Moriarty in the Sherlock Holmes sequel. A casting decision I think everyone could easily get behind. Pitt had previously worked with Director Guy Ritchie and the insanely awesome Snatch, so his involvement seemed fairly likely.

Well now according to Super Hero Hype Pitt may not be the guy after all. Their sources tell them that Ritchie may have actually had his eye on Daniel Day-Lewis for Holmes arch-nemesis. A casting decision much easier said than done.

I would love to see Daniel in the role, as he would no doubt be great, but will he be interested? They'll no doubt be offering him an extremely large amount, but even then there's no guarantee the two time Academy Award winner will come on board.

With shooting set to start soon for a December 16th 2011 release they'll likely be announcing the casting very soon.
