Enola Holmespremiered on Netflix just days ago, and it’s already become one of the streaming service’s最受关注的电影(AKA it’s #1 on the top ten list). The film starsStranger Thingsactress Millie Bobby Brown as a young detective named Enola Holmes. (If you think it sounds like a teenage version ofSherlock Holmes, that’s because it is.)

The movie, which is based on Nancy Springer’sEnola Holmes Mysteriesbook series, takes place in England in the 1800s. It tells the story of Enola (duh), who just so happens to be the younger sister of Sherlock Holmes. When her mother vanishes on her 16th birthday, Enola is thrown into the mystery as she attempts to piece together clues that were left behind.

In addition to Brown, Henry Cavill and Sam Claflin,Enola Holmes明星海伦娜Bonham Carter as Mrs. Holmes. Other cast members include Fiona Shaw, Adeel Akhtar, Frances de la Tour and Louis Partridge.
Of course. The pics show a first glimpse at Brown, who plays the titular character. While Enola is a complete 180 from Eleven onStranger Things, we can’t deny the period look suits Brown. The actress is pictured alongside Cavill (Sherlock) and Claflin (Enola’s other brother, Mycroft).
Enola Holmeshas a noteworthy crew running the show, including director Harry Bradbeer (Killing Eve) and writer Jack Thorne (His Dark Materials). Brown also served as an executive producer alongside Paige Brown (A Time Lost), Alex Garcia (Godzilla: King of the Monsters), Ali Mendes (Pokémon Detective Pikachu) and Mary Parent (The Revenant).
Unfortunately, Netflix hasn’t released any details about a follow-up film. However, that didn’t stop Brown from teasing a potential sequel during an interview withEntertainment Weekly.
“With theEnolabook series, I really am optimistic about the future,” she said. “I’m so looking forward to [hopefully] getting back to work.”
Us, too, Millie. Us, too.
