Netflix is officially bringing back the beloved teen detective for another thrilling adventure in Enola Holmes 3, with Millie Bobby Brown reprising her role as the sharp and spirited sleuth. The third film promises a bold step forward for the franchise, offering more emotional depth, new characters, and an international setting that elevates the stakes for Enola like never before.

Release Date and Production Timeline

Enola Holmes 3 is currently in post-production, with Netflix confirming the film’s release window sometime in 2026. Filming took place between April and June 2025 across scenic locations in Malta—specifically Valletta and Mdina—and at Shepperton Studios in the UK.

While Netflix has yet to confirm the exact premiere date, the streaming giant’s typical release cadence suggests a debut in the second or third quarter of 2026.

Returning Cast and Exciting New Additions

Millie Bobby Brown not only returns in the title role but also continues as a producer, reinforcing her deep involvement in the creative direction of the series. She is joined once again by:

  • Henry Cavill as Sherlock Holmes
  • Helena Bonham Carter as Eudoria Holmes
  • Louis Partridge as Lord Tewkesbury

New additions to the cast include:

  • Himesh Patel as Dr. Watson
  • Sharon Duncan-Brewster as the formidable Moriarty

These new characters hint at stronger ties to the traditional Sherlock Holmes universe, while expanding Enola’s world and the complexity of her challenges.

A Darker Tone with Global Stakes

Directed by Philip Barantini and written by Jack Thorne, the third installment is expected to be more mature and emotionally layered. The story takes Enola far from London, immersing her in a mysterious case in Malta, where personal and political intrigue collide.

This darker narrative tone will likely appeal to both returning fans and a broader audience interested in more intense and character-driven storytelling.

Netflix’s decision to greenlight the third film, announced in late 2024, solidified Enola Holmes as one of the platform’s most successful young adult franchises.
