  GAL GADOT JOINS
BRANAGH'S 'DEATH ON THE NILE'
Gal Gadot will play a rich heiress on the cruise
As much as I wanted to love it, Kenneth Branagh's adaptation of Agatha Christie's Murder on the Orient Express was a ghastly bore for me, but it does not mean the new film in the series won't be better. As 'Deadline' reports, Gal Gadot has just joined him in his new adaptation of DEATH ON THE NILE in which, beside directing, he will again play Hercule Poirot. The writer is, sadly, the same as in Orient Express, but unlike that one, where a murder happened on a train, in this one Poirot is investigating a murder on a boat. Gal Gadot will be rich heiress Linnet Ridgeway Doyle who was enjoying that luxurious cruise when the murder happened only to continue again when the suspects start dying one by one.The movie should be out for New Year's Eve 2019! Just a month before that you will be watching Gadot in Wonder Woman sequel.

  1. Branagh's first outing as Poirot was okay but I'm surprised to hear he's doing another one.

    1. the first one earned about 300 million around the world on a $50 million budget, so no surprise there :)

  2. Dylan Sprouse still looks like a baby. Did the poor kid ever hit puberty?

    Love Gal Gadot. I admit, I wasn't thrilled when they cast her as Wonder Woman, but she's won me over.

    1. my thought exactly!
      She was nice as Wonder Woman, but I reckon she is like Daisy Ridley, she will probably never really make it big.

    2. PS Last Man Standing was amazing! They filled my heart with such warmth while I watched the return last night! And they were the best watched programme in the country on Friday while Murphy Brown's return was a major flop and scored even less than LMS's follow up Cool Kids :) Such delight!

    3. What did you think of the new Mandy? I haven't been hearing good things about her, but it's probably because people just don't like change. You know that I'll wait until this season is over before binge watching the series, so I can't wait to see how strong the ratings stand.

    4. Mandy was amazing, I love it that they decided to take a taller and blond actress... that way they show respect both to the old actress and the new one, as she won't copy the old one and she will be able to shape her own character. I liked the new Mandy's comical timing, we just need to get used to her physically. I'm guessing the ratings will stay between 1,4 and 1,8 which is what they had for six years before. Murphy Brown was barely around 1,1 and they will have that biatch Hilary in the next episode so I'm guessing the show might get cancelled soon which will be such a thrill as they were brought back just to spread hate.

    5. Once I heard Hilary was on, it sealed the deal to never watch the new reboot. Fingers crossed it tanks and LMS continues to climb!

  3. Kenneth Branagh's adaptation of Agatha Christie's Murder on the Orient Express was an abomination. I left the theater. I kid you not. Frigging movie.

    1. I was barely awake until that borefest finished. And to have Judi Dench and Derek Jacobi in the cast and not put focus on them but on horribly talentless Pfeiffer and always immature Depp???

    2. What a waste. The kind of waste that isn't even worth flushing.
