SEE HOW THEY RUN DISNEY+ MYSTERY
1953. A sleazy American director hoping to helm the movie version of The Mousetrap is murdered at the West End theatre staging Agatha Christie’s whodunnit.

The play’s cast, which includes Richard Attenborough and his wife Sheila Sim (both in the original 1952 cast), are all suspects. The movie is full of references to films, shows and, indeed, itself, but it’s still a fun mystery comedy. The starry cast includes Adrien Brody, Ruth
Wilson and Reece Shearsmith (above, with Pippa BennettWarner). From Wednesday
