After saying goodbye to Eleven from Stranger Things, Millie Bobby Brown is continuing her journey with another familiar and much-loved character: Enola Holmes. In the upcoming installment, Sherlock Holmes’s younger sister will once again take on complex investigations, but this time she may also find herself facing a far more personal mystery—the secrets of her own heart.

Beyond her breakout role as Eleven, Millie Bobby Brown, now known by her married name Millie Bonnie Bongiovi, has become widely associated with Enola Holmes, the clever and independent sister of the legendary detective Sherlock Holmes. The Enola Holmes franchise has already produced two successful films, released in 2020 and 2022, both of which were met with strong audience enthusiasm on Netflix.

In 2026, Enola Holmes 3 is set to arrive, marking the continuation of Enola’s story. Filming for the third installment wrapped in 2025, and anticipation has steadily grown since then. Recently, Netflix unveiled the first official image from the new film, offering fans an early glimpse into what appears to be an emotionally charged moment and helping to reignite excitement around the franchise.

The newly released image shows Enola Holmes, portrayed by Millie Bobby Brown, seated on a bed while Viscount Tewkesbury, played by Louis Partridge, kneels in front of her, extending an object toward her. At first glance, the gesture resembles a traditional proposal, though the object in his hand is revealed to be a flower rather than a ring. Still, the flower’s shape, combined with Tewkesbury’s posture and Enola’s surprised expression, has led many viewers to speculate about the romantic implications of the scene. It is difficult not to interpret the moment as a symbolic step forward in their relationship.

The connection between Enola and Tewkesbury has been developing since the first film. In Enola Holmes, the two meet when Tewkesbury runs away from home and narrowly escapes an assassination attempt, with Enola playing a key role in saving his life. In the second film, Enola encounters him again after he officially inherits his father’s title, emerging as a young and prominent nobleman. By the end of Enola Holmes 2, the pair have clearly entered a romantic relationship, leaving audiences eager to see where their story would go next. The third film appears poised to explore whether that bond will deepen—or be tested.

According to early information, Enola’s latest adventure will take her far from England to the Mediterranean island nation of Malta. While the reasons behind her journey remain unclear, it is suggested that she quickly becomes entangled in a dangerous and complex situation upon arrival. As she navigates a new and unfamiliar environment filled with hidden threats, Enola must balance the demands of solving another intricate case with the emotional challenges of her evolving relationship with Tewkesbury. While unraveling criminal puzzles may come naturally to her, understanding matters of the heart may prove far more difficult.

In addition to Millie Bobby Brown and Louis Partridge, Enola Holmes 3 will also see the return of several familiar faces from earlier films. Henry Cavill reprises his role as Sherlock Holmes, while Helena Bonham Carter returns as Eudoria Holmes, the unconventional mother of Sherlock and Enola. However, fans may be disappointed to learn that Sam Claflin does not appear to be returning as Mycroft Holmes, leaving the Holmes family once again incomplete in this installment.

Online reactions to the announcement and first look at Enola Holmes 3 have been largely positive, particularly among fans of Millie Bobby Brown. Many viewers have recently bid farewell to Eleven, as Stranger Things concluded with its fifth and final season, leaving the character’s future somewhat open-ended. Some fans have joked that while Eleven may not have received a perfectly happy ending, Enola Holmes might offer a more satisfying emotional journey.

The third Enola Holmes film is expected to premiere on Netflix later this year, though an exact release date has yet to be announced. In the meantime, fan discussions continue to flourish across social media, with viewers expressing excitement about the blend of mystery, period drama, and romance. Whether audiences are drawn to Enola’s sharp intellect, her emotional growth, or the return of beloved characters, Enola Holmes 3 appears ready to deliver another engaging chapter in the Holmes legacy.
