Henry Cavill fans are excited to see his another Netflix venture. This time, it’s a film title Enola Holmes. The film also stars Millie Bobby Brown and Sam Claflin. Cavill will play the iconic character, Sherlock Holmes. The expectations from him are high considering in the past actors like Benedict Cumberbatch and Robert Downey Jr have portrayed the detective.
As soon as the trailer came out, fans started comparing who’s the best Sherlock Holmes among the three. After all, if one doesn’t portray him to perfection, the character may appear caricaturish as he is known as a man who speaks with no emotions on his face. But Henry said that his Sherlock is totally different Benedict and Downey’s version.
In an interaction with Movieweb, Henry Cavill got candid about playing the detective from Baker Street in Enola Holmes. He said, “Our Sherlock is different from what we may see as the traditional misogynistic genius. Enola softens Sherlock and opens up his heart, which we haven’t really had access to in other renditions. It was a lot of fun taking on such an iconic role, particularly as an enormous amount of the pressure was off because Sherlock’s not at the forefront of the story. Enola is, so he’s not going to be directly compared to Benedict Cumberbatch or Robert Downey Jr’s version.”
