When her mother mysteriously disappears on her 16th birthday, Enola Holmes seeks help from her older brothers, Mycroft and the famous super-sleuth Sherlock. But soon realizing they’re less interested in solving the case than in packing her off to boarding school, Enola does the only thing a smart, resourceful and fearless young 1880s woman can do…she runs away to London. There, she begins her own remarkable crime-solving career, always keeping one step ahead of Sherlock.
Based on YA author Nancy Springer’s Enola Holmes Mysteries novel series, the movie will also feature Academy Award-nominated actress Helena Bonham Carter (King’s Speech) as Enola Holmes’ enigmatic mother Eudoria, Henry Cavill (Justice League) as Sherlock Holmes, and Sam Claflin (The Hunger Games) as the eldest of the Holmes siblings, Mycroft Holmes.
Fiona Shaw (Killing Eve), Adeel Akhtar (Murdered by My Father), Frances de la Tour (Into the Woods), Louis Partridge (Medici), Susan Wokoma (Chewing Gum) and Burn Gorman (Pacific Rim) have also been cast in the movie.
