All About Enola Holmes 3

Amid the peak of the pandemic in 2020, while the world was grappling with what content might work and what wouldn’t, Netflix had a clear winner with Enola Holmes. The film, set in the world of the legendary detective Sherlock Holmes, focuses on his younger sister as she embarks on her own crime-solving adventures. The movie had all the right elements to succeed—it featured Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown in the lead, Henry Cavill as Sherlock Holmes, and was a well-crafted story. Its success led to a sequel in 2022, and since then, fans have eagerly awaited the third installment. While updates on Enola Holmes 3 have been scarce, a new report reveals that the film is indeed happening and might take a darker, Harry Potter-esque turn in its tone.

Enola Holmes 3 Confirmed?

For the uninitiated, rumors about Enola Holmes 3 have been circulating for quite some time. Now, according to a report by Deadline Netflix has officially begun work on the movie. Millie Bobby Brown is set to reprise her role as Enola Holmes and will begin filming after wrapping up the fifth and final season of Stranger Things. The threequel will be directed by Philip Barantini, who reportedly has a unique and intriguing vision for the story.

The report also confirms that Mary Parent, Ali Mendes, and Alex Garcia will produce Enola Holmes 3 under Legendary Entertainment. Meanwhile, Millie Bobby Brown and her sister Paige Brown will produce the film through their production company, PCMA Productions. Jake Bongiovi and Isobel Richards will serve as executive producers for PCMA. However, there is no word yet on whether Henry Cavill will return to reprise his role as Sherlock Holmes.

Enola Holmes 3 Storyline

Details about the plot of Enola Holmes 3 remain under wraps. However, the report mentions that it was Philip Barantini’s vision for the franchise that captured the studio’s interest. His take is said to be darker and more mature compared to the previous two films. According to the report, the third installment is expected to have a tonal shift similar to what Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban brought to the Harry Potter franchise. This darker, more complex approach ultimately convinced Netflix to greenlight the project.

What’s Next for Millie Bobby Brown

Millie Bobby Brown is currently busy filming the highly anticipated final season of Stranger Things which the Duffer Brothers have confirmed will release in 2025. Once she wraps up work on the hit series, she is expected to shift her focus to Enola Holmes 3.
