In Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows, we re-join Holmes (Robert Downey Jr.) and Watson (Jude Law) in another pursuit of a notorious villain. In this case, it's Professor James Moriarty (Jared Harris) who seeks to push France and Germany into war for his own benefit.

Immortals is a story about a peasant named Theseus (Henry Cavill) who is unknowingly chosen by the god Zeus to lead the fight against the ruthless King Hyperion (Mickey Rourke).
