The first poster for the upcoming Netflix sequel, Enola Holmes 2, reveals the return of Millie Bobby Brown as the titular detective, Henry Cavill as Sherlock Holmes, and Helena Bonham Carter as Eudoria Holmes, among others. Released courtesy of the official Netflix Twitter account, the poster makes the…questionable decision to hide all the main players within a crowd ‘Where’s Wally’ style. See who you can spot in the poster for Enola Holmes 2 below.

Released back in September 2020, the first Enola Holmes introduces audiences to the lesser-known sister in the Holmes brood. An adaptation of the mystery-thriller book series of the same name, written by Nancy Springer, Enola Holmes chronicles the adventures of Sherlock Holmes’ younger sister Enola, who, when her mother disappears, decides to become a super-sleuth in her own right. Running away to London, where she establishes a clandestine private detective career specializing in missing person investigations, Enola must also keep ahead of her brothers, who are determined to capture and force her to conform to their expectations.

The first outing for Enola Holmes was met with largely positive reviews from both critics and audiences alike and quickly became the most watched film on Netflix (at the time, anyway). The movie was watched by a massive 76 million households during its first four weeks. Off the back of such monumental success, Netflix no doubt has high hopes for the Enola Holmes franchise and will be anticipating the same response for Enola Holmes 2.

Returning director Harry Bradbeer already has his sights set on franchise filmmaking, revealing that he would love the opportunity to helm many more adventures for Enola Holmes. “It’d be wonderful to get five more movies out of this scene,” he said. “I do think they’re extraordinary stories to tell, and what a period. As you go forward, things like that three-wheeled car - which was a lovely thing we discovered — to find our characters playing on some of the new contraptions at some point in the early 20th century. Of course, we get airplanes and the Wright brothers. Who knows what other challenges are going to come out of this really restless, productive period.”

Several details have now been revealed regarding the direction of Enola Holmes 2, with the sequel set to follow the character as she tackles her first big case. “Now a detective-for-hire like her infamous brother, Enola Holmes takes on her first official case to find a missing girl, as the sparks of a dangerous conspiracy ignite a mystery that requires the help of friends — and Sherlock himself — to unravel,” the synopsis for Enola Holmes 2 reads.

Enola Holmes 2 is scheduled to be released late in 2022 on Netflix.
