Pierce Brosnan, Helen Mirren Star in Netflix’s Thursday Murder Club

LOS ANGELES, CA—On August 31, 2025, Netflix’s Thursday Murder Club, adapted from Richard Osman’s bestseller, premiered with a powerhouse British-Irish cast: Pierce Brosnan, Helen Mirren, Ben Kingsley, and Celia Imrie. The Thursday-Murder-Club-Netflix-cast, playing crime-solving retirees, brings decades of chemistry from past projects like The Long Good Friday and Calendar Girls.

“It’s a proper gang vibe,” Imrie quipped about the group’s camaraderie. Directed by Chris Columbus (Home Alone), the film swaps typical murder-mystery tropes for sharp British humor and emotional depth. “It’s not your usual whodunit,” Columbus said. For more film news, visit Variety.
