Kenneth Branagh’s Hercule Poirot comes face to face with a ghost in 'A Haunting in Venice' trailer.
Hercule Poirot is coming out of retirement in the first trailer for A Haunting in Venice. After last year's Death on the Nile saw Agatha Christie's beloved detective face a tragic tale of a honeymoon gone horribly wrong, Kenneth Branagh is bringing the character back later this year to face a borderline supernatural mystery. Branagh takes the reins once again as director and stars as Poirot as his time off gets cut short for another grizzly murder case.
A Haunting in Venice pulls from Christie's novel Hallowe'en Party which sees the detective tasked with unraveling a murder during a, well, Halloween party. A thirteen-year-old girl realizes she previously witnessed a murder and tells the guests her story, but no one believes her. Things take a turn for the wicked when she winds up dead and the host calls in Poirot to investigate.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Taking inspiration from Hallowe'en Party marks a bit of a departure from Branagh's films. His previous outings, Murder on the Orient Express and Death on the Nile, both draw from two of Christie's best-known novels. Her Halloween-set mystery, however, has been mostly overlooked and seen as one of her weaker Poirot novels.
