Serving as a sequel to the 2020 film Enola Holmes, it is directed by Harry Bradbeer from a screenplay written by Jack Thorne and a story they co-wrote together. The film stars Millie Bobby Brown, reprising her role as Enola Holmes and Henry Cavill as Sherlock Holmes, with Louis Partridge, Susie Wokoma, Adeel Akhtar, and Helena Bonham Carter also reprising their supporting roles, while David Thewlis and Sharon Duncan-Brewster are added as new cast members.

Plot

Cast

Production

In September 2020, co-producer and star Millie Bobby Brown and director Harry Bradbeer acknowledged their intentions to develop a sequel to Enola Holmes.[3] Brown said she thought only about making the first film until she was on set, then she loved playing the character and said it would be a dream to do it again.[4]

In April 2021, a sequel was confirmed to be in development, with Brown and Cavill reprising their roles as Enola Holmes and Sherlock Holmes.[5] Sam Claflin was unable to return as Mycroft Holmes due to scheduling conflicts, much to the sadness of Bradbeer and the crew, though Mycroft's absence allowed them to concentrate on Sherlock much more.[6] In May 2021, the project was officially confirmed by Netflix.[7][8] Brown was reportedly paid $10 million for her role.[9]

Production and filming began in Autumn 2021.[10] Scenes were filmed in Hull in October 2021.[11][12]

Cavill wrapped filming in November 2021.[13] Filming concluded on January 7, 2022.[14]

Reception

On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 93% of 43 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 6.9/10. The website's consensus reads: "Building on its predecessor with boisterously entertaining flair, Enola Holmes 2 solves the mystery of how to make a satisfying sequel – and makes it look positively elementary."[15] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 62 out of 100, based on 16 critics, indicating "generally favorable" reviews.[16]
