Pierce Brosnan and Helen Mirren Set to Star in ‘The Thursday Murder Club’ – Exciting Entertainment News

Pierce Brosnan, Helen Mirren, and Ben Kingsley are teaming up for an exciting new project titled ‘The Thursday Murder Club’. The film, based on Richard Osman’s novel of the same name, will be directed by Chris Columbus and produced by Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Entertainment.

The plot follows a group of elderly friends at a retirement home who enjoy solving murders for fun but find themselves embroiled in a real-life case. Mirren will play ex-spy Elizabeth, Kingsley will portray ex-psychiatrist Ibrahim, and Brosnan will take on the role of former union activist Ron. Negotiations are still ongoing for the actress to play the fourth member of the group, Joyce.

Filming is set to begin in the UK at the end of June and will continue through September. Columbus, known for directing hits like ‘Home Alone’ and ‘Mrs. Doubtfire’, will be adapting Osman’s bestselling book for the big screen.

Osman’s novel has sold over 10 million copies and has spawned multiple sequels. He sold the rights to Spielberg in 2020, and the project has been in the works since then.

Osman, a well-known British TV presenter and entertainment executive, is excited to see his book come to life on the silver screen. With a star-studded cast and a talented director at the helm, ‘The Thursday Murder Club’ is sure to be a hit with audiences worldwide.
