CJohn Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 They should have gotten some stars that can draw an older audience since that is their target anyway. I assume this will likely be a Hulu Original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddddeeee Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 I think this is worth a punt. Much less flashy than MotOE and DotN. Halloween setting will lend itself to an October release. Non-cursed cast... *knocks wood*. The book isn't one of Christie's best, but there's scope to improve and it's really quite meanspirited and nasty in a way that makes it stand out. I'm guessing DotN did well on VoD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume this will likely be a Hulu Original. Variety says this is getting a theatrical release. The 2023 untitled options are August 25, October 14, December 8, and December 22. Maybe one of the December options to get those holiday legs? I also think the big cast members are solid enough names that will make at least a few people my parents' age go "ooh". Yeoh especially, since she's got that EEAAO goodwill. EDIT: Oh @ddddeeee, this is Halloween-themed? Yeah, then this is probably getting the October 14 date next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ringedmortality Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Murder released in October and Nile was supposed to release in October as well. So October is just the natural release date for these movies. That being said, I'll be on the verge of being considered an older audience when this comes out. And I love Tina Fey so...

DAJK Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 I like the cast. I’m game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clockwork Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Michelle Yeoh is certainly getting some work isn't she? Good for her. I never saw Death on the Nile but it felt like it just came and went rather quickly, the cast for that movie was kind of so-so anyway. This cast for this one seems a bit more low key but hopefully thats turns out for the best. I don't think that all murder mysteries need a huge recognizable cast to be good/great.

filmlover Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 The 20th Century division is not completely dead outside of Avatar (and I guess Apes) after all! Nile was an improvement over Orient Express (even if it was still only alright) so I guess I'm down for a third movie. I'm guessing Disney was happy with the former's overall performance considering it came out at a time when adult moviegoers still hadn't fully returned to theaters yet.

BadOlCatSylvester Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Easily some of the most surprising movie news of the year so far. Death on the Nile didn't do all that well, so color me shocked Disney's Fox would actually not only greenlight another, but also give it a theatrical release instead of just dumping it on Hulu like they do with most Fox movies now.

lorddemaxus Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Idk, this feels like flop. At least the last two had one or two pretty big names going for them and other recognizable actors. I can only recognize like three people here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorddemaxus Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Hoping he also shoots some of this in black and white film. Watched the last one on a plane ride and the opening looked do much nicer than anything I've seen from Belfast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmlover Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 This can be moved to the main section now since it's being fast-tracked for a release in less than a year @Eric the Crocodile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAJK Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 My guess it that it will increase from DotN, but still come nowhere near the numbers Orient Express did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddddeeee Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 Fey is definitely Ariadne Oliver. That should he fun. I'm wondering if the whole thing isn't just a big ode to Don't Look Now. A whodunnit set in Venice centred around a child drowning with supernatural undertones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
