It’s ‘Only Murders in the Retirement Home’ in the new trailer for The Thursday Murder Club, a murder mystery heading to Netflix later this month.
The film, based on the bestselling Richard Osman novel, stars Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan, Ben Kingsley, and Celia Imrie as four sunsetters who investigate cold cases for fun. However, like the acclaimed Hulu show Only Murders in the Building, their passion for true crime hobby turns into an actual murder investigation.

“When an unexplained death occurs on their own doorstep, their casual sleuthing takes a thrilling turn as they find themselves with a real whodunit on their hands,” the streaming service said in a synopsis.
An all-star British supporting cast, including Naomi Ackie, Daniel Mays, Henry Lloyd-Hughes, Tom Ellis, Jonathan Pryce, David Tennant, and Richard E. Grant, joins the four principal actors in The Thursday Murder Club, which was helmed by Home Alone director Chris Columbus.
“There’s a wonderful mystery at its core, so mystery fans will be very happy,” Columbus told Tudum of the film. “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 murder. 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.”
The Thursday Murder Club hits Netflix on August 28.
