Ritchie coy on Pitt's role in Holmes flick

Guy Ritchie has confirmed Professor Moriarty will be a character in ‘Sherlock’ Holmes – but refused to admit he would be played by Brad Pitt.

It was reported earlier this week that the ‘Curious Case of Benjamin Button’ actor is set to play the villain in the director’s forthcoming film about the British detective, and while Guy admitted there would be an appearance from the character, he wouldn’t be drawn on who is playing the role.
