About this movie

Kenneth Branagh stars as celebrated sleuth Hercule Poirot in this terrifying mystery set after World War II on an eerie All Hallows' Eve. Now retired and living in self-imposed exile in glamorous Venice, Italy, 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. Reuniting many of the filmmakers behind 2017's "Murder on the Orient Express" and 2022's "Death on the Nile," "A Haunting in Venice" is directed by Kenneth Branagh with a screenplay by Michael Green ("Logan" co-writer) based upon Agatha Christie's novel "Hallowe'en Party." The producers are Kenneth Branagh, Judy Hofflund, Ridley Scott, and Simon Kinberg, with James Prichard, Louise Killin and Mark Gordon serving as executive producers. A cast of unforgettable characters is portrayed by a brilliant acting ensemble that includes Kenneth Branagh, 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"), Riccardo Scamarcio ("Caravaggio's Shadow"), and Michelle Yeoh ("Everything Everywhere All at Once").
