Good news has traveled faster than wildfire, as Henry Cavill is officially returning as the legendary detective in Enola Holmes 3. Like Benedict Cumberbatch passing the deerstalker to another worthy actor, Cavill's Sherlock will once again stand alongside Millie Bobby Brown's brilliant Enola. Production cameras are already rolling against Malta's sun-drenched landscapes, capturing the Holmes siblings as they navigate another labyrinth of clues and conundrums. 

The Holmes family reunion extends beyond just the cerebral siblings. Helena Bonham Carter returns as Eudoria Holmes, bringing her energy and revolutionary spirit back to the screen. Louis Partridge reprises his role as Tewkesbury, while Sharon Duncan-Brewster continues her villainous chess match as the formidable Moriarty. Himesh Patel will also join the investigative ensemble as Dr. John Watson, completing a cast roster more impressive than the British Museum's antiquities collection.
