Kenneth Branagh has unveiled the first trailer for his return as Hercule Poirot in Death on the Nile.

The latest Agatha Christie adaptation follows writer-director Branagh's debut as Poirot in 2017's Murder on the Orient Express.

Back as the Belgian supersleuth - and once again directing - the Belfast man is joined by Tom Bateman, Annette Bening, Russell Brand, Ali Fazal, Dawn French, Gal Gadot, Armie Hammer, Rose Leslie, Emma Mackey, Sophie Okonedo, Jennifer Saunders and Letitia Wright for a story of "unbridled passion and incapacitating jealousy", set long before any local residents' WhatsApp group.

Death on the Nile is due in Irish cinemas in October. Release date TBC.
