Millie Bobby Brown’s Netflix crime hit Enola Holmes is to become a trilogy. An important hurdle has now been cleared behind the scenes: the director has been found.
Multitalented Millie Bobby Brown is not only a Stranger Things star, but also a producer and writer. One of the projects she co-produced for the streaming service is the highly successful crime series Enola Holmes, in which she also plays the leading role of the Sherlock Holmes relative. This series is to be continued.
Enola Holmes 3 has already been more or less approved by Netflix, but only now has something concrete happened behind the scenes. Specifically, according to Deadline, a director has been chosen for the film.
Enola Holmes 3 is getting off the ground: Philip Barantini is directing the Netflix movie
Director Philip Barantini, who most recently worked on the series Boiling Point, Malpractice and The Responder, as well as his film Accused, is familiar with exciting material. Netflix has now entrusted him with the third part of Enola Holmes, which he is to bring to the screen with Millie Bobby Brown in front of the camera. However, it is not yet known when shooting will begin.
Set in the Victorian era, Enola Holmes is about the youngest member of the Holmes family, who is just as clever as her famous brother Sherlock (Henry Cavill) and even breaks the fourth wall from time to time. In the first film, Enola sets off for London to find her mother Eudoria (Helena Bonham Carter) and is catapulted into a thrilling crime adventure. Nancy Springer provides the novel templates.
Enola Holmes 1 and 2 were directed by Harry Bradbeer, who is otherwise known for the series Fleabag and Killing Eve, which also feature female leads. He has thus staged one of the streaming service’s most-watched film series.
