Sherlock Holmes Set Troubles
First, star Robert Downey Jr. was knocked out accidentally by 7-foot British actor Robert Maillet after catching a blow to the chin.
"Robert was accidentally caught on the chin by a thundering hook. He went flying and was out cold," according to the tabloid's source. "He didn't want to go to hospital and kept trying to get up. He's a trooper. But there have been lots of other problems too."
The source also revealed that the set was closed for two hours when a tanker making a delivery to the set burst into flames.
"The crew have started joking about the curse of Sherlock Holmes," the source added.
Sherlock Holmes was released December 25th, 2009 and stars Robert Downey Jr., Jude Law, Rachel McAdams, Mark Strong, Eddie Marsan, Robert Maillet, Geraldine James, Kelly Reilly. The film is directed by Guy Ritchie.
