“I suspect foul play”

From acclaimed writer-director Rian Johnson (Brick, Looper) comes a stylish, dark and dizzyingly fun murder mystery for the modern age. When wealthy crime novelist Harlan Thrombey (Christopher Plummer) is found dead at his sprawling estate just after his 85th birthday party, the debonair detective Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig) is mysteriously enlisted to investigate. Tasked with sifting through a dastardly selection of suspects, Blanc must reckon with an “enlightened” wellness guru (Toni Collette), a ruthless heiress (Jamie Lee Curtis), a disgruntled publisher (Michael Shannon) and a loyal nurse (Ana de Arnas) in this this star-studded and ingeniously plotted crime tale rife with red herrings.
