Sherlock Holmes’ adventurous and spunky sister, Enola Holmes, is going to be back on Netflix on November 4. Netflix has released the first-look images of the Enola Holmes sequel, starring Millie Bobby Brown as the young detective Enola, who can give her more famous brother a run for his money.
The working title of the film is "Enola Holmes 2" and it will repeat Henry Cavill as Sherlock, Sam Claflin as elder brother Mycroft and Helena Bonham Carter as their mother Eudoria. The new film will have newcomers Hannah Dodd, Adeel Akhtar, Sharon Duncan-Brewster and David Thewlis, among others.
In the first look images, we get a glimpse of the newest adventure of the youngest of the extremely gifted Holmes siblings. Enola is seen in handcuffs in one image and along with his brother Sherlock in another.
Netflix has kept other details largely under wraps for now, but Brown has teased that Enola Holmes will find herself in London this time round, exploring the busy city whilst becoming a detective herself. "We set the film in the hustle and bustle of London, which is something that we didn’t really get to see as much in the first one, " she said. |We got to really see what this young girl is doing in this crazy city that surrounds her night and day, and we get to explore these places in great detail."
Returning director Harry Bradbeer also explained that "Enola Holmes 2" will take on a darker and more serious tone than its predecessor. "I wanted this story to be a grittier one, " he added. "I wanted to introduce her to working-class girls in a working-class world. I wanted it to be a completely new world for Enola, so she was more out of her depth."
