What to know

Enola Holmes 2 is a mystery and adventure movie produced by Netflix. The movie is an adaptation of young adult novels written by American author Nancy Springer. So far, there are seven books in the book series, and the most recent one was released in 2021.

The universe of Sherlock Holmes served as a fertile ground and inspiration for Springer. The writer wanted to explore Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's London but allow a female lead to take center stage. Several events in the books are drawn from Springer’s own life, including an absent mother and two much older brothers she didn't have the chance to grow up with.

The British actress is best known for her work as Eleven in Stranger Things - the blockbuster Netflix series that catapulted her to international stardom. Millie Bobbie Brown isn't only an actress in Enola Holmes 2, she's also an executive producer on the project. This makes the teenager one of the youngest producers in Hollywood.

Alongside Mille Bobbie Borwn in Enola Holmes 2 is Henry Cavill and Helena Bonha Carter. Henry Cavill plays the world’s most famous detective, Sherlock Holmes. And Helena Bonham Carter takes on the role of Enola's mother, Eudoria Holmes. Cavill is perhaps best known for playing Superman in Man of Steel and Justice League. He's also the star of Netflix’s The Witcher series. Bonham Carter recently starred as Princess Margaret in seasons 3 and 4 of Netflix’s highly acclaimed drama series, The Crown. Enola Holmes 2 was released on November 4th, 2022.
