Hollywood actor Robert Downey Jr says he was "grumpy" when he first started shooting Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows.

The 46-year-old actor, who reprises his role as Arthur Conan Doyle's legendary detective in the second film in the franchise, said he enjoyed the "brutal" schedule of the first movie.

But he was disappointed because the action scenes were left to the end in the second installment.

"We had a brutal schedule last time, but it was so much fun, and we were kind of wondering if we could catch this thing on fire and make it work. And pretty early on we figured we were on to something.

And this time around, we only really started the action last week, which had me a little grumpy for a minute," said Downey.

Director Guy Ritchie admitted that there was a "lot of wafflage" in the early days of the filming, while Downey's co-star, Jude Law, who plays Holmes' sidekick Dr Watson, said the shooting schedule on the sequel was entirely different to the first film.

"We shot a lot of waffle straight away. There was a lot of wafflage," said Ritchie.
