Interview with Mark Strong (Sherlock Holmes)

Mark Strong is one of those amazing actors who you have seen in many films, but can't always remember his name. In Sherlock Holmes, he plays nasty villain Lord Blackwood, foible to detective Holmes and Dr. Watson. Sherlock marks Strong's third collaboration with director Guy Ritchie, a man he says he absolutely loves working with.

In Sherlock Holmes, Sherlock and Watson engage in a battle of wits and brawn with the evil Lord Blackwood, whose plot is a threat to all of England.

Tribute's Bonnie Laufer spoke with Mark Strong about how much he enjoys playing the bad guy in this action packed movie, his impression of seeing Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law in action and why after studying to become a lawyer, he changed career paths and became an actor.
