Enola Holmes 3 Happening at Netflix (And Harry Potter Fans Should Be Excited)

As a dedicated fan of both Enola Holmes and the Harry Potter series, I can hardly contain my excitement for the upcoming third installment of this captivating franchise. Having grown up with these stories, I’ve witnessed the evolution of both Enola and Hermione Granger, two remarkable young women who have captivated audiences around the world.


Enola Holmes drew in audiences quickly from the get-go. Based on Nancy Springer’s book series, this movie focuses on Sherlock Holmes’ younger sister as she investigates mysteries throughout London. The first film debuted during the pandemic, featuring Millie Bobby Brown (from Stranger Things) as the lead character and Henry Cavill (former Superman) portraying Sherlock. It proved popular for Netflix, setting the stage for sequels. Both the second movie and its successor were equally successful, leading to the greenlighting of Enola Holmes 3. Recently, Netflix has disclosed additional details about the upcoming film, sharing with Deadline that director Phillip Barantini will be involved, and the new installment aims to adopt a darker, more mature tone, similar to the Harry Potter series.

Enola Holmes has always been a significant focus for Netflix, with Brown being a prominent talent for the streaming platform, having played crucial roles in shows like Stranger Things and movies such as Damsel and The Electric State. Brown’s performance as Enola Holmes has been exceptional, improving with her acting growth over time. This makes the intriguing prospect of Enola Holmes 3 even more exciting: according to reports, Barantini got the job when he expressed his desire to make this third movie resemble Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. While the first two Harry Potter films are popular for their faithful adaptation of the source material, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban marked a turning point for the series.

Alfonso Cuaron, a renowned Mexican director, steered Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, deviating slightly from the original source material yet significantly enhancing the series. Known for his exceptional visual style and cinematography, Cuaron skillfully developed the young cast members’ characters in this movie. The news that Barantini is leveraging Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban as a basis for Enola Holmes 3 is exciting for fans. This move has the potential to elevate the series, much like how Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban took the Harry Potter series to new heights. Currently, Barantini is generating a lot of buzz – he recently completed Adolescence, a four-part series featuring Stephen Graham (upcoming Venom 3), and they previously collaborated on Boiling Point, a 2021 drama film about the stresses of a restaurant’s busiest night. The concept for The Bear, a hit TV series that emerged a year later, was somewhat foreshadowed by this film.

Netflix has been taking significant steps recently, and the upcoming movie Enola Holmes aligns perfectly with this trend. The next episode is set to be produced by Mary Parent, Ali Mendes, and Alex Garcia from Legendary Entertainment, along with Millie Bobby Brown and Bobby Brown from PCMA Productions. Jake Bongiovi and Isobel Richards will serve as executive producers for PCMA in this project.

Enola Holmes 3 is slated to begin filming in 2025.
