After the Entertainment Weekly cover teaser, we finally get the first trailer to the November release of Murder on the Orient Express. And no, I don't mind Kenneth Branagh's epic moustache as Hercule Poirot.
We have great cinematography, lush costumes and interiors (this was key) and some darting eyes, panicked voices, and Michelle Pfieffer giving us her best Madonna looks. We may even get the first subtle Johnny Depp performance in years, if that's possible.
Nice onscreen intro text to each character, to let newbies know who everyone is. I'm hoping screenwriter Michael Green's adaptation keeps the flavor of the 1974 version but adds his own twists and details.
"The murderer is with us, and every one of you is a suspect."
