If the first movie of Enola Holmes is from 2020 and it seems they are going three years per sequel, the saga of Sherlock’s young sister could end in 2047, when Millie Bobby Brown will be 43 years old.
Come on, Netflix better hurry up if they intend to adapt the entire saga written by Nancy Springer, because they have a lot of material to cover. For now, Enola Holmes 3 starts with a real bombshell: The wedding of its protagonist!
A matchmaking mystery
This is how the trailer for this third part begins, following the previous one: Enola is in love with Tewkesbury, but just as she is about to get married, she receives the news that her brother has disappeared. And of course, we’re not going to leave this saga without its obligatory cameo from Henry Cavill, so she embarks on an adventure, trying to find out who did it and why.
For now, we know that it will premiere on July 1, and it will feature the return of all the classic actors from the saga, from Cavill and Brown to Helena Bonham Carter. It should be noted that, at this point, the novels and the movies differ almost completely. In fact, Tewkesbury only appears in the first book and, of course, does not marry Enola at any point. The things that come with making adaptations for Netflix that require compromise.
Probably, even though this movie may not be very successful, we will have Enola Holmes 4: it is a recognizable franchise for Netflix, wants to secure Millie Bobby Brown as a “house” star and it’s always nice to pick up the phone knowing that the one and only Henry Cavill is on the other end, right? There is no mystery there.
