Enola Is More Central Than Sherlock In Enola Holmes, But Sherlock Is Still Key
Sherlock Holmes is one ofthe best characters inEnola Holmes, despite not being the main one. Millie Bobby Brown plays Enola Holmes, the main character of the franchise, and is refreshing as Sherlock’s ambitious little sister. This feminist approach brought Arthur Conan Doyle’s age-old classic renewal, growth, and sociopolitical relevance.Cavill’s Sherlock took a backseat, letting Bobby Brown drive, while shiningas her emotionally distant and problematic sibling. Cavill’s take on Sherlock was completely different from those of Benedict Cumberbatch and Robert Downey Jr., adding a new dimension to a well-trodden story.
Enola Holmes 3 Will Be Very Different If It Follows This Book
Enola Holmes 3 is officially in development, and though the movies have been loose adaptations of the books, these provide some clues about the plot.
Enola Holmes’focus on the Reform Bill votewas as historically educational and feminist as its premise - focusing on Sherlock’s sister, rather than Sherlock. Enola was invented by Nancy Springer in her 2006Enola Holmesnovel, riffing off theSherlock Holmesclassics created by Arthur Conan Doyle in the 1800s. Springer proved how “fanfiction” can be the best type of fiction.Sherlock fit into this story as a guiding figure for Enola, but also a symbol of what was missing in her life. Cavill captures this trait beautifully and his Sherlock deserves a comeback in the nextEnola Holmesouting.
