Will Ferrell and Sacha Baron Cohen will team up for a new comedy based on Sherlock Holmes characters, "The Insider" has learned.

The movie will reunite the former on-screen rivals, who faced off in 'Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby.'

The Sherlock Holmes characters, created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle will "inspire the screenplay, which will use the works as a starting point for the comedy," according to a statement from Columbia Pictures.

Sacha will take on the role of the famous master detective, with Will as Dr. Watson, his less intuitive crime-solving partner.

  • The Sacha and Will show will be splendid indeed, Sacha is truly funny, the facial expressions and the voices. Will is the Master blaster full throttle Irish oversized man. These two turned it on for Taledega Nights and will do it all over again!...

  • These two together are hilarious. Can't wait to see what Sascha does with Sherlock Holmes who takes himself very seriously. Think they must go to same hair stylist.
