Kenneth Branagh‘s adaptation of Agatha Christie’s prominent 1937 novel, Death on the Nile, may not be doing well in theatres right now. But it is ready to come out on various streaming platforms. The helmer’s second entry in his Hercule Poirot movie franchise has grossed nearly $116 million globally against its $90 million budget. Various reports have confirmed that the film will not turn into a profit in its entire theatrical run. And if we throw the tough competition the movie is currently receiving from Tom Holland’s Uncharted and Robert Pattinson’s The Batman into this mess, things are going to get way more ugly for it. Here’s when we can expect it to arrive on Disney+ Hotstar.
HBO Max and Hulu have revealed that Death on the Nile will debut on their streaming services on March 29. Plus, it will come out on Disney+ in selected international markets a day later. Viewers from countries like Australia, New Zealand, Finland, Sweden, Denmark, Belgium, Portugal, Korea, and many more will be able to watch the film from these dates. Furthermore, it can be streamed in Malaysia, Indonesia, and Thailand via their respective Hotstar platforms on April 6. So, we can expect that it may appear on the Indian version of Disney+ Hotstar somewhere around this time.
Branagh plays the character of the legendary and skilful detective, Hercule Poirot, in the movie. Apart from him, we have a sensational cast of Annette Bening, Tom Bateman, Russell Brand, Ali Fazal, Gal Gadot, Armie Hammer, Dawn French, Rose Leslie, Letitia Wright, and many more here. Despite its mixed critical response, the film has managed to impress a majority of viewers. It stands with an 82% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes.
The group of Sir Ridley Scott, Judy Hofflund, Kevin J. Walsh, and the director himself, Kenneth Branagh, have served as producers for Death on the Nile. Logan and Blade Runner 2049 fame, Michael Green, has contributed to the film’s story. He is also responsible for penning down the screenplay of its previous instalment, Murder on the Orient Express. The movie is out now in theatres.
