ROBERT DOWNEY JR. QUITS COWBOYS FOR HOLMES

ROBERT DOWNEY JR. has dropped out of new movie COWBOYS AND ALIENS to concentrate on the SHERLOCK HOLMES sequel, according to reports.
The Hollywood actor was set to re-team with Iron Man director Jon Favreau for the sci-fi adventure, based on the 2006 graphic novel of the same name.
But Favreau is now looking for a new star after Downey Jr. quit the project following a schedule clash with a planned follow-up to the detective drama, according to EW.com.
Studio bosses are reportedly set to have Downey Jr. back as Holmes in June (10) to start shooting the sequel. (LR/EW/ZN)
