Millie Bobby Brown to star in and produce movie series about Sherlock Holmes' sister
Millie Bobby Brown’s storyline in season two of Stranger Things wasn’t the best, but pretty much any enjoyment that was to be found in her extended digressions from the main plot was all because of how rad Brown herself is. Now, Deadline is reporting that she’s parlaying that radness into a sweet gig starring in and producing a movie series based on Nancy Springer’s Enola Holmes Mysteries books. Legendary Entertainment is producing the project, which will involve Brown starring as Enola, the significantly younger sister of Sherlock and Mycroft Holmes. Naturally, Enola is also “a highly capable detective in her own right,” because you don’t grow up in the Holmes family and become a banker. (Or, if you do, you become the smartest and smuggest banker in the whole banking world.)
This will continue Brown’s existing relationship with Legendary, as she also just wrapped filming on Michael Dougherty’s Godzilla sequel.
