Henry Cavill has been busy shooting the long-awaited Highlander remake earlier this year. The film, featuring big stars like Russell Crowe and Dave Bautista, is said to be in the final stages of production, but its release date is still unclear. Cavill's first project of the year was In The Grey, where he reunited with Guy Ritchie. This action thriller, co-starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Rosamund Pike, did not achieve the expected success at the box office, but it garnered some interest on VOD platforms.

Cavill's second film this year, Enola Holmes 3, was released on Netflix yesterday and has sparked significant discussion among fans worldwide. Cavill portrays Sherlock Holmes in this trilogy of detective stories, but the narrative unusually revolves around Sherlock's younger sister, Enola. One reason for the popularity of the Enola Holmes films is the star power of Millie Bobby Brown. However, Enola Holmes 3 received a low score of only 70% from critics on Rotten Tomatoes, making it the lowest-rated entry in the series, especially when compared to the 91% and 93% scores of the first two films.

David Caballero from Collider rated the film 5/10, praising the supporting characters but viewing the predictable mystery as a major drawback. Molly Freeman from ScreenRant also gave it the same score, stating that Millie Bobby Brown's performance as Enola Holmes has "lost its charm." Rachel Leishman from CBR rated the film 8/10, expressing that Enola has solved the biggest issue of stepping out of the shadows and into the spotlight.

Netflix's official synopsis for Enola Holmes 3 states that the young detective is trying to solve a new mystery in Malta. Enola receives news that Sherlock has been kidnapped just as she is about to marry Lord Tewkesbury, and she immediately intervenes. However, there are signs that this film may mark the end of the Enola Holmes series. It has been announced that Millie Bobby Brown will be involved in a new spy thriller project alongside her Stranger Things co-star David Harbour.
