Agatha Christie's 'Death On The Nile' Is A Love Letter To Classic Mystery And 1930s Style

Agatha Christie's 'Death On The Nile' Is A Love Letter To Classic Mystery And 1930s Style

There's nothing quite like international mystery to keep our escapism entertained, especially given the horrendous year we've had.

And it looks like the latest remake of a classic Agatha Christie mystery is set to do precisely that.

Enter: Death On The Nile.

Directed by Kenneth Branagh, the Harry Potter alum also stars as a lead in the film playing Belgian detective Hercule Poirot. Based on the novel of the same name, the film follows Poirot while he's vacationing aboard a luxurious river cruise when a couple’s honeymoon is suddenly cut short.

And while the nail-biting plot is something to look forward to, the film has partnered with Tiffany & Co. to feature an array of iconic jewellery pieces—including the jaw-dropping 128-carat yellow diamond that Lady Gaga wore to the 2019 Academy Awards.

Need we say more? Keep reading for everything you need to know about the film, from the plot to the cast and when it will be released in Australia.

What Is The Plot Of Death On The Nile?

Set in the 1930s, Death On The Nile follows famous literary detective Hercule Poirot, who is attempting to solve a suspicious death on a steamer boat that is sailing down the River Nile in Africa, filled with characters who have ominous secrets to hide.

Among the passengers are upper-class gentleman Simon Doyle, his wealthy new wife Linnet Ridgeway-Doyle and his former fiancée Jacqueline de Bellefort in a combination that promises trouble.

But don't take our word for it, check out the trailer below to see for yourself.

Who Is Cast In Death On The Nile?

Death On The Nile is anything but short on star power. Leading the cast is Gal Gadot (Wonder Woman) as Linnet Ridgeway-Doyle, Armie Hammer (Call Me By Your Name) as Simon Doyle and Emma Mackey (Sex Education) as his former fianceé Jacqueline de Bellefort.

And the supporting cast is just as impressive, starring Kenneth Branagh (Tenet, Harry Potter) as Detective Hercule Poirot, Letitia Wright (Black Panther) as Rosalie Otterbourne, Russell Brand (Forgetting Sarah Marshall) as Doctor Ludwig Bessner, Rose Leslie (Game Of Thrones) as Louise Bourget, Ali Fazal (Victor and Abdul) as Andrew Katchadourian and Dawn French (The Vicar Of Dibley) as Mrs. Bowers.
