Taking his hit film to the Land of the Rising Sun, Jude Law attended the Japanese premiere of “Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows” in Tokyo on Thursday (February 16).

The Dr John Watson actor stepped onto the red carpet at Roppongi Hills and looked stylish in a black ensemble as he smiled for several pictures before heading inside the film’s big-screen debut.

Squaring up after a wide-reaching British tabloid scandal, Jude Law is expected to receive $200,000 once the settlement is complete.

According to reports, Rupert Murdoch has agreed to pay damages to three dozen victims affected by his phone hacking claims and tabloid articles.

Making a stop at the Ed Sullivan Theatre to promote his "Sherlock Holmes" sequel, Jude Law appeared as the guest on the "Late Show with David Letterman" on Friday night (December 16).

The hunky British actor plugged his just-released motion picture while also telling a story of how he was tricked into getting drunk during the last night of performing in the stage production of Eugene O'Neill's "Anna Christie".
