Jul 24, 2023


We’ve got a full trailer for you to watch for director Kenneth Branagh’s latest Agatha Christie film, which is a supernatural horror mystery story. The movie is titled A Haunting in Venice, and it’s inspired by Christie’s novel Hallowe’en Party. Branagh is back in the role of Hercule Poirot and the story sees him embarking on a creepy ghostly adventure and it looks great! I love a good horror-themed mystery and I’m excited to watch this! This might be Branagh’s best Agatha Christie movie yet!The film is set post-World War II Venice on All Hallows’ Eve, A Haunting in Venice is “a terrifying mystery featuring the return of the celebrated sleuth, Hercule Poirot. Now retired and living in self-imposed exile in the world’s most glamorous city, Poirot reluctantly attends a séance at a decaying, haunted palazzo. When one of the guests is murdered, the detective is thrust into a sinister world of shadows and secrets.”Branagh previously said in a statement: “This is a fantastic development of the character Hercule Poirot, as well as the Agatha Christie franchise. Based on a complex, little known tale of mystery set at Halloween in a pictorially ravishing city, it is an amazing opportunity for us, as filmmakers, and we are relishing the chance to deliver something truly spine-chilling for our loyal movie audiences.”Steve Asbell, president 20th Century Studios, says, “We are enormously privileged to continue our long collaboration with the incomparable Sir Kenneth Branagh and couldn’t be more excited by the bold new creative direction Ken, Michael, and the rest of the filmmaking team have taken with this latest film. We also remain grateful to James Prichard and the rest of our friends at Agatha Christie, Ltd., for their partnership and for once again entrusting us with, as Poirot modestly calls himself, ‘probably the greatest detective in the world.’”The ensemble cast includes Michelle Yeoh (Everything Everywhere All at Once). Kyle Allen (Rosaline), Camille Cottin (Call My Agent), Jamie Dornan (Belfast), Tina Fey (30 Rock), Jude Hill (Belfast), Ali Khan (6 Underground), Emma Laird (Mayor of Kingstown), Kelly Reilly (Yellowstone), and Riccardo Scamarico (Caravaggio’s Shadow).The script for the film was written by Michael Green (Logan), and A Haunting in Venice will open in theaters nationwide on September 15, 2023.
