Enola Holmes 3 potential release date, cast and everything you need to know

ENOLA HOLMES 3’ reportedly begins filming in April.

In March 2025, Millie Bobby Brown revealed the exciting news that cameras are going to be rolling on Enola Holmes 3 “in the coming weeks”.

It follows Philip Barantini being confirmed as director of the threequel back in November 2024. The first two movies were written by Jack Thorne, but it’s not yet clear if he’s written the third movie too.

To mark the exciting news about the next movie, here’s everything you need to know about Enola Holmes 3.

Enola Holmes 3 potential release date: When can we expect Enola Holmes 3?

ENOLA HOLMES 3’ reportedly begins filming in April.

While that means it’s unlikely to arrive this year, it could well be on Netflix in 2026.

The first movie arrived in September 2020 and the sequel followed in November 2022, but hopefully we don’t have to wait until the end of 2026 to see it.

Enola Holmes 3 cast: Who will be back for Enola Holmes 3?

It wouldn’t be an Enola Holmes movie without Millie Bobby Brown as the titular character and since Brown also produces the series, she’ll definitely be back on the case.

Other likely returns include Henry Cavill as Sherlock Holmes, Louis Partridge as Tewkesbury, Helena Bonham Carter as Enola and Sherlock’s mother Eudoria, Susie Wokoma as Edith and Adeel Akhtar as Lestrade.

Even though he wasn’t involved in the sequel, there’s a chance we could see more from Sam Claflin as Enola and Sherlock’s brother Mycroft too.

He missed out on the sequel as a result of a schedule conflict, but the door is open. “If there was a future one we would love to have him back,” director Harry Bradbeer explained of Claflin’s potential return.

The sequel also brought some major names into the fold in terms of the Sherlock Holmes universe.

First up, expect to see more of Sharon Duncan-Brewster in the third movie as she was revealed to be playing iconic Sherlock villain Moriarty. As good as Moriarty is, we don’t give her much hope facing up against Sherlock and Enola.

Our heroes also now have a familiar Sherlock ally in their corner too, as the sequel’s credit scene introduced Himesh Patel as the one-and-only Dr John Watson.

Enola Holmes 3 plot: How does Enola Holmes 2 set up the third movie?

As with the first movie, Enola Holmes 2 wrapped its main mystery up and didn’t really leave us on a major cliffhanger to tease the third movie.

In the final moments of the sequel, we see that Moriarty has escaped from prison so we’re sure she’ll be back to cause havoc in the threequel. At least Enola and Sherlock will now have the help of Dr John Watson too for any mysteries ahead.

The sequel didn’t really take any inspiration from Nancy Springer’s book series that the movies are inspired by.

While the third book, The Case of the Bizarre Bouquets, does introduce Dr Watson, Moriarty hasn’t been featured in the series at all, so we’d imagine that the third movie will again tell its own original story.

What that’ll be remains to be seen, but expect it to be suitably twisty.
