In a fantastic exclusive, Entertainment Weekly have debuted a first-look at Kenneth Branagh’s upcoming adaptation of Agatha Christie’s Murder On The Orient Express. The eight images and fantastic cover give us our very first look at the cast of the film, which is currently in post-production.
Branagh directs the film as well as starring in the lead role as Hercule Poirot. The stunning cast also includes the likes of Johnny Depp, Michelle Pfieffer, Penelope Cruz, Daisy Ridley, Josh Gad, Willem Dafoe, Lucy Boynton, Derek Jacobi, Olivia Colman, and Dame Judi Dench.
The story revolves around a murder on one of the world’s most luxurious trains, and is based on the book of the same name by Agatha Christie. Here’s the plot from the source material:
Just after midnight, a snowdrift stops the Orient Express in its tracks. The luxurious train is surprisingly full for the time of the year, but by the morning it is one passenger fewer. An American tycoon lies dead in his compartment, stabbed a dozen times, his door locked from the inside.
Isolated and with a killer in their midst, detective Hercule Poirot must identify the murderer – in case he or she decides to strike again.
Check out the rest of the glorious photos below. Murder On The Orient Express is currently set for a November 24th release date.
