Enola Holmes solving another mystery; more true crime horrors from Jason Blum; a step back in time with the Ingalls family; another behind-the-scenes look at the on and off field lives of NFL’s best; Will Ferrell channelling Kenny Powers; a lavish Korean historical drama; the Heartstopper finale; and the ubiquitous Kevin Hart’s latest comedy project are among the new film and TV highlights to hit Netflix in July.
Kicking off July is arguably Netflix’s big movie for the month, the third installment in the popular Enola Holmes franchise. Millie Bobby Brown returns as the titular character, the precocious younger sister of the world’s greatest detective Sherlock Holmes (Henry Cavill) in this period thriller. The first two Enola Holmes films relied on great casting and writer Jack Thorne’s (yep, the Adolescence guy) winning scripts and The Hollywood Reporter‘s critic feels the third installment pulls off the same trick. Directed by Adolescence helmer Philip Barantini, the cast also includes Louis Partridge, Himesh Patel, Sharon Duncan-Brewster and Helena Bonham Carter.
Also debuting on July 1 is the true crime docuseries Worst Neighbor Ever. The show is a spinoff of Netflix’s Worst Roommate Ever, and follows a similar structure in allowing real people to relay their horrific run-ins with their neighbors. Also produced by horror maestro Jason Blum, the logline for the show reads, “Through compelling testimonials, startling bodycam footage, and animated reenactments, Worst Neighbor Ever proves the people next door aren’t just a nuisance — they’re lethal.”
