Murder on the Orient Express is a 2017 mystery thriller film directed by Kenneth Branagh with a screenplay by
Michael Green, based on the 1934 novel of the same name by Agatha Christie. The film stars Branagh as Hercule
Poirot, with Penélope Cruz, Willem Dafoe, Judi Dench, Johnny Depp, Josh Gad, Derek Jacobi, Leslie Odom Jr.,
Michelle Pfeiffer, and Daisy Ridley in supporting roles. The film is the fourth screen adaptation of Christie's novel,
following the 1974 film, a 2001 TV film version, and a 2010 episode of the television series Agatha Christie's Poirot.
Hercule Poirot, the best detective in the world, decides to travel on the Orient Express. The train accidentally gets
stopped because of a small avalanche. Little did he know that a murder was planned and that a person on this train
was capable of committing such crime.
