Enola Holmes’s
mystery-solving days are far from over, but her third cinematic outing has hit a plot twist no one anticipated. Still in production, Enola Holmes 3
has found itself entangled in an unexpected real-world dilemma—Donald Trump’s revived tariff policies. These trade barriers are striking Hollywood where it hurts, and Enola’s latest adventure is the project caught in the crossfire. Fan-favorite productions are under pressure, prompting British film bodies to demand urgent government talks.
Announced in November 2024, Enola Holmes 3
was set to continue the sleuthing saga—until a sudden storm of tariffs threatened to derail the mystery before filming could even wrap.

UK film bodies are gearing up for urgent talks with the government following Donald Trump’s surprise proposal to impose a 100% tariff on films made outside the US. This move could hit the UK hard, as it has become a hub for Hollywood blockbusters thanks to generous tax breaks and top-tier talent. Big-budget productions like Avengers: Doomsday
and Enola Holmes 3
, currently filming in the UK, now face major uncertainty. Last year alone, US studios invested nearly $1.58 billion in British film production.
