About this Event
What is The Thursday M**der Club about?
The film follows a group of friends in a retirement home who gather to solve murders for fun but find themselves caught in a real case.
The four main members of the Thursday M**der Club are played by a crew of talented thespians whose names you might recognize. Helen Mirren plays ex-spy Elizabeth, Ben Kingsley is ex-psychiatrist Ibrahim, Pierce Brosnan portrays ex–union activist Ron, and Celia Imrie takes on the role of ex-nurse Joyce.
Working with such an adept cast, director Columbus aimed to bring out a balance of humor, intrigue, and heart, and the result is a singularly moving, hilarious, edge-of-your-seat adventure. “There’s a wonderful mystery at its core, so mystery fans will be very happy,” he says. “But thematically it’s interesting that we’ve got four elderly people who are living in a retirement community and who are fascinated by death and M**der. They are facing their own demise, yet at the same time they are obsessed with studying cold cases. I fell in love thematically with that. It’s comedic, but it’s also very emotional.”
Is The Thursday M**der Club based on a book?
Yes! The Thursday M**der Club is adapted from House of Games presenter Richard Osman’s 2020 novel of the same name. If you want to read about more cases the group attempts to solve, Osman continues the book series with The Man Who Died Twice,The Bullet That Missed, and The Last Devil to Die, as well as the newest installment The Impossible Fortune, which is released later this year.
