Watch Millie Bobby Brown and Henry Cavill goof off on the set of Enola Holmes in this new blooper reel. Last week, Netflix released its latest buzzy original film, Enola Holmes, to generally positive reviews and a spot on its daily most popular list. Based on the young adult novels by Nancy Springer, Enola Holmes follows the brilliant younger sister of Sherlock (Cavill) and Mycroft (Sam Claflin). While her brothers wish to ship her off to boarding school, Enola (Brown) sets off to solve her own mystery when the Holmes matriarch, Eudoria (Helena Bonham Carter), goes missing.
Enola Holmes has quickly become one of the streamers most exciting films of the year, partially because it features a pair of major Netflix stars. Brown, of course, plays Eleven on Stranger Things, while Cavill took center stage in his own series, The Witcher, last year. Both are expected to return for the next seasons of their respective shows and could possibly return for an Enola Holmes 2 if Netflix gives it the green light. Director Harry Bradbeer has confirmed there's been talks of a possible Enola Holmes sequel, but it remains to be seen if it will actually happen.
In the meantime, fans of Enola Holmes can relish in some new behind the scenes content, courtesy of the Netflix Film Club. The latest featurette is perhaps the most amusing of them all, as it's the blooper reel. Fans will enjoy watching Brown, Cavill, Claflin, and others having a ball on set, whether it's because of a flubbed line or a prop that doesn't cooperate. Also included: Plenty shots of Brown flossing. She's quite good at it. Check out the bloopers down below.
Bloopers are often the best kind of behind the scenes material, and for a movie as fun as Enola Holmes, they're perfect. It's clear Brown and the others had a good time making this film. In particular, it's still delightful to see Brown look this lively; on Stranger Things, Brown plays a very quiet and serious character. Enola Holmes has provided her the opportunity to portray a more extroverted young woman, and many would say she's done an excellent job of it.
Netflix has come under fire from the estate of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle for its portrayal of Sherlock, but audiences so far seem to have appreciated this fresher take on the character and his family. However, while Enola Holmes is technically a Sherlock story, the focus here is really on Brown's Enola, which makes the film a unique instance. Springer has several other stories for Enola that could easily be adapted should Netflix say yes to a sequel, and based on these bloopers, the cast is likely hoping they will.
