Rachel McAdams, who stars in this weekend's limited release of The Lucky Ones, reportedly has signed up for a role in Guy Ritchie's star-studded movie Sherlock Holmes, according to The Hollywood Reporter." The action-adventure pic is scheduled to begin shooting next month.

McAdams is to play Irene Adler, a character from Arthur Conan Doyle's 1891 Holmes tale "A Scandal in Bohemia".

Robert Downey Jr. is playing Holmes, Mark Strong is playing the film's main baddie Blackwood and Jude Law is playing Holmes's sidekick Watson.

Ritchie and Strong previously collaborated on the current release RockNRolla.

McAdams is best known for her work in The Notebook, The Family Stone, Wedding Crashers and Red Eye.
