“Enola Holmes” is a mystery movie adapted from the first book of the exact title penned by Nancy Springer. The story follows the sister of the widely famous Sherlock Holmes, who journeys to London in search of her mother who went missing but instead finds herself on a gripping adventure, teaming up with a runaway noble as they try to unravel a mystery that endangers the whole country.
The first movie which was released in September 23, 2020, was helmed by Harry Bradbeer and a script written by Jack Thorne with Millie Bobby Brown playing the titular character Enola Holmes. Following the immense success of the first movie, it’s no surprise that “Enola Holmes” is getting a sequel and it’s coming sooner than you think. Now you might be thinking whether the Enola Holmes film series will be getting a threequel or not. So without wasting any more time, let’s get onto the deets below.
Enola Holmes 3 Release Date: When is it?
Currently, there have been no talks concerning the third movie of Enola Holmes. However, the much-anticipated sequel is on its way and is scheduled to premiere on Netflix on November 4, 2022, but it did not. It is also reported that Brown will serve as producer for the first time on the sequel. The movie also stars Henry Cavill, Sam Claflin, and Helena Bonham Carter.
According to Netflix, a script for the third Enola Holmes feature is currently in development. Scott Stuber, the Head of Film at Netflix, recently spoke highly of Millie Bobby Brown, praising her and calling her one of the company’s “homegrown stars” for her role as Eleven in the immensely popular Stranger Things. There may be more information regarding the possible film soon, but there is very little for now.
Speaking to EW, Brown reveals it’s ‘rewarding’ to serve as a producer and play a part in the films and calls it the ‘most important moment in my career.’
“[Enola Holmes] may be the most important moment in my career so far, because it’s something that I developed. It’s rewarding. Obviously, it can be tiring, and when you look back on it, you’re like, ‘Gosh, I can’t believe I didn’t fall asleep.’ But there were so many things that I got to be a part of, and I really was grateful for that. My age and gender has never defined [my job], so everyone on set really respected me and heard me. It was such a nice environment to be able to experience.”
Details for the third movie are yet to be announced but if we have to predict, it’s most likely that “Enola Holmes” will only be out in 2024. Well, for now, fans can look forward to the second movie.

In a recent interview with EW, the young actress revealed that her bond with her older brother in real life enabled her to prepare for her role in Enola Holmes 2.
“Despite our humongous age difference – and he’s going to hate that I said that – Henry and I had such great chemistry on set. Being able to play his younger sister, it’s quite easy. I have an older brother, and I know how easy it is to annoy him, get on his nerves, make him laugh. I know his weaknesses. I know his strengths. I basically just use that with my brother, so I actually used that on Henry, too.”
The director and screenwriter for Enola Holmes 3 is not confirmed yet but we expect Bradbeer and Thorne to return once again to their assigned duties.
What to expect from the storyline of Enola Holmes 3?
The future for Enola Holmes is still being created, much like a great detective novel! Though the specifics are unknown, the hints suggest some amazing things.
Enola and possibly even Sherlock (with his newfound friend Dr. Watson!) will stop that cunning criminal Moriarty from causing mischief again.
As a young detective in a world run by adults, Enola may have new obstacles to overcome and secrets regarding the Holmes family to unearth. She’s smart and resilient, so don’t worry; she might even meet some awesome new people.
It will be a tale of female empowerment, standing up for what’s right, and perhaps even a tiny piece of familial history. After this one, there may be additional adventures with Enola or tales about other intriguing people in her world.
So prepare for another round of Enola Holmes mysteries by keeping an eye out and a sharp mind!
Enola Holmes 2 Recap!
In Enola Holmes 2, the protagonist embarks on a journey of self-discovery as she delves into her first case—a search for her client’s missing sister—trying to prove her worth and avoid being eclipsed by her well-known brother’s achievements.
In tracking Sara’s abduction, the feminist film explores other women’s battles for chances and rights in late nineteenth-century London. Enola is the target of sexist comments, and her brother is steadily gaining business as her agency is losing ground.
Enola’s case entailed battling for safer and better working conditions for female industrial workers at the Lyon Match factory, but there are also examples of empowerment.
There’s also a reference to the Matchgirls’ strike in 1888 in the protest she led alongside Sara Chapman, the missing girl she discovers near the end of the movie.
At the Bryant and May match factory, a woman named Sara Chapman organized young women to demonstrate against the cheaper white phosphorus being used in place of red phosphorus, as handling it was causing health problems for the workers.
For the sake of suspense and possibly a different interpretation of the incident with Enola, much of Sara’s facts, disappearance, and accomplices are omitted or greatly exaggerated. Still, it’s a small homage to a movement that aimed to improve working women’s circumstances.
