Popular Netflix film spin-off thrown into chaos as cast and crew are hit with illness during overseas shoot
A popular Netflix spin-off has reportedly been plunged into chaos after cast and crew were struck down with food poisoning.
Production on Sherlock Holmes spin-off Enola Holmes, starring Millie Bobby Brown, had moved from Shepperton Studios to Malta for its final weeks of filming.
However, things came to a screeching halt after members of the team fell ill due to suspected dodgy catering, according to The Sun.
The unexpected setback has delayed the shoot, causing pressure on the team to hit the deadlines.
A source told the publication: 'It's a nightmare because these productions run to such tight schedules and filming had to be stopped.
'There were a fair few affected and it meant everything had to grind to a halt until they got better.
'It ended up being a bout of food poisoning which is just really unfortunate. Luckily it wasn't anything too serious and everyone recovered but it put pressure on them in terms of hitting deadlines.'
Earlier this year, Millie Bobby Brown confirmed she would be returning as Enola Holmes, the younger sister of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's famous detective Sherlock Holmes.
Henry Cavill is back as Sherlock, with Himesh Patel returning as Dr. Watson, and Louis Partridge reprising his role as Enola's love interest, Viscount Tewkesbury.
Helena Bonham Carter returns as Eudoria Holmes, while Sharon Duncan-Brewster continues to portray the villainous Moriarty.
Production kicked off earlier this year for the third season, with Netflix targeting a late 2025 release.
Plot details are under wraps but it will reportedly be a darker iteration than the previous two instalments.
In the movie, the youngest member of the Holmes family goes off in search of her missing mother, even as her more famous brothers try to thwart her investigation.
The film was originally planned for a theatrical release by Warner Bros., but it was picked up by Netflix in April amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
Speaking about the second sequel in a statement for Deadline, leading lady Millie said: 'I can't wait to collaborate again with my Enola Holmes family!
'Enola holds a special place in my heart – she's strong, fearless, intelligent and brave. I look forward to fans seeing how her journey continues!'
Millie previously revealed that she 'found it really challenging being British' in the role after five years in the American Netflix series Stranger Things.
The actress, who grew up in Dorset, England, and settled in Florida with her family to pursue her acting career aged eight, said she 'had to learn how to speak again'.
Speaking to Radio Times, she said: 'For the last five years I've been playing an American character in Stranger Things and I found it really challenging being British in this, even though I am a Brit.
'I had to learn how to speak again because I'm so used to speaking in an American accent.'
