What's New on Netflix This Week: October 31 Through November 6

A much-anticipated sequel is hitting Netflix this week.

Starting on Friday, November 4, the streaming service will add Enola Holmes 2 to its available content. The Enola Holmes sequel is once again directed by Emmy and BAFTA winner Harry Bradbeer (Fleabag, Killing Eve, Ramy) from a screenplay written by returning scribe BAFTA and Tony Award winner Jack Thorne (Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, The Aeronauts). The sequel features the return of Millie Bobby Brown as the titular teen detective, Henry Cavill as Sherlock Holmes, Louis Partridge as Tewkesbury, Helena Bonham Carter as Eudoria Holmes, and Susan Wokoma as Edith. Joining them are David Thewlis (Wonder Woman), Adeel Akhtar (Sweet Tooth), Sharon Duncan-Brewster (Dune), Abbie Hern (The Twilight Zone), Hannah Dodd (Fighting with My Family), Gabriel Tierney (Endeavour), and Serrana Su-Ling Bliss.

“Fresh off the triumph of solving her first case, Enola Holmes follows in the footsteps of her famous brother, Sherlock, and opens her own agency — only to find that life as a female detective-for-hire isn’t as easy as it seems,” reads the synopsis. “Resigned to accepting the cold realities of adulthood, she is about to close shop when a penniless matchstick girl offers Enola her first official job: to find her missing sister. But this case proves to be far more puzzling than expected, as Enola is thrown into a dangerous new world — from London’s sinister factories and colorful music halls, to the highest echelons of society and 221B Baker Street itself. As the sparks of a deadly conspiracy ignite, Enola must call upon the help of friends — and Sherlock himself — to unravel her mystery. The game, it seems, has found its feet again!”

The sequel is being produced by Brown and Paige Brown through their PCMA Productions banner, along with Legendary’s Mary Parent, Alex Garcia, and Ali Mendes. Executive producers are Bradbeer, Thorne, Michael Dreyer, and Legendary’s Joshua Grode. It is a co-production between Legendary and Netflix.
