England, 1884 – a world on the brink of change. Set in 19th century England, Enola Holmes follows Sherlock Holmes’ younger sister (Brown) as she attempts to solve the mystery of her mother’s disappearance. Adapting the first of Springer's books as the origin tale in what's surely intended to be a series of Netflix movies, Harry Bradbeer's Enola Holmes makes a fine showcase for Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown, who gets to drop the layers of anxiety and trauma that make that show's El such a compelling character. Sherlock shares many characteristics with his kid sister and his mother, but that's not one of them.
The British mystery film is based on a book series by Nancy Springer. Enola (Brown) is sixteen when her mother disappears.
The movie started with Enola going in search for her brothers. In Enola Holmes (that's "alone" spelled backwards), Sherlock's little sister decides to take the mystery-solving into her own hands in an attempt to find her mother Eudoria, played by Helena Bonham Carter, who has gone missing on the morning of Enola's 16th birthday. Based on Nancy Springer's YA book series The Enola Holmes Mysteries, this movie takes a feminist approach to the traditionally male-dominated tales of Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The film is also not without controversy, as it was reported in June, the streamer is being sued by the Arthur Conan Doyle estate.
Millie Bobby Brown plays Enola, Henry Cavill is Sherlock, Sam Claflin is Mycroft and Helena Bonham Carter is their enigmatic, energetic mother.
