Kenneth Branagh is back for this third — and by TheWrap’s account, best — appearance as Agatha Christie’s detective Hercule Poirot in “A Haunting in Venice.” He also directs the spooky mystery, which boasts a terrific lineup of murder suspects (and potential victims), including Michelle Yeoh, Tina Fey, Jamie Dornan and Kelly Reilly.
Here’s who plays which character in the film based on Christie’s 1969 novel “Hallowe’en Party” — and where you might have seen the less familiar names before.
“A Haunting in Venice” is now streaming on Disney+.

British actor Kenneth Branagh reprises his role as the fussy Belgian detective, Hercule Poirot, whom he previously played in the recent remakes “Murder on the Orient Express” and “Death on the Nile.” The film begins in 1947 with Poirot retired from sleuthing and leading a quiet life in Venice — until he’s dragged into a new case.

Captain Lee Rosbach has his Cheerios on Below Deck, but Captain Sandy Yawn has her own breakfast “must have” on Below Deck Mediterranean.
Below Deck Med Season 8 temporary chief stew Natalya Scudder, who worked for Yawn last season as a second stew, said the one thing the captain demands is freshly squeezed orange juice.
“As long as Captain Sandy has fresh orange juice in the morning she’s quite happy,” Scudder told Showbiz Cheat Sheet. “Every single morning it’s fresh orange juice. If it’s not in the bridge before she wakes up, she’s not happy.”
Can the stews ‘cheat’ with Captain Sandy Yawn’s juice?
Yawn will know if the juice isn’t freshly squeezed. “She’ll notice if it isn’t fresh. So the grapefruit juice and then the orange juice have to be fresh every single morning and then so does a green juice and like two smoothies,...

Kenneth Branagh's third outing as Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot is ostensibly based on her 1969 novel Hallowe'en Party. Its literary genesis is well obfuscated. While many elements have been retained they are so thoroughly transformed that having read the book will not constitute a spoiler. That makes it all the harder to forgive issues of pacing and plodding that dog the film's curious incidents.
Poirot has retired to Venice, a contemplative idyll protected by Riccardo Scamarcio's Vitale Portfoglio. The name (which roughly translates as 'important folder') is another indicator of concealment. Scamarcio's one of a massive international cast. Though he's probably better known in Italy, audiences elsewhere might recall him from John Wick Chapter 2, The Translators, or export grade melodrama Three Floors. He joins Camille Cottin as the housekeeper Mrs Seminoff, Kelly Reilly as opera singer Rowena Drake, Jamie Dornan's Dr Ferrier and Tina Fey as Christie's.

Below Deck Down Under bosun João Franco may be new to the series, but not the franchise. Franco made his first appearance on Below Deck Mediterranean Season 3 as a deckhand. He returned for Below Deck Med Season 4 as bosun and has been working on racking up certifications while off the show.
Franco has been a controversial figure on Below Deck. He majorly clashed with chief stew Hannah Ferrier and bosun Conrad Empson during his first season of the series. Franco also dated one stew while flirting with another stew and got extremely messy when he would get drunk.
And while Below Deck Med Season 3 was tough and he received backlash, he returned for Below Deck Med Season 4 as bosun and as a redemption season. He patched up any conflicts he had with Ferrier and curbed his drinking. And while he definitely bickered less with the crew, he still ended up making waves.

New Below Deck Down Under bosun João Franco got a less than thrilling welcome from chief stew Aesha Scott because they majorly clashed the last time they worked together.
Franco will replace fired bosun Luke Jones and while he and Scott don’t totally hate each other, she blocked him on social media after they worked together on Below Deck Mediterranean Season 4, especially after Franco referred to Scott as looking like a “Russian prostitute” during the season.
Aesha Scott said João Franco used to flirt with her ‘all the time’
Scott wanted to confront Franco at the Below Deck Med Season 4 reunion, but they didn’t film a reunion that season. At one point Franco made a derogatory comment about Scott’s outfit when the crew was out on the town.

Too much? Were Lala Kent and James Kennedy’s reactions on the Vanderpump Rules Season 10 reunion too over the top?
The entire Vanderpump Rules cast was furious with Tom Sandoval at the reunion as they hashed out how he cheated on longtime girlfriend Ariana Madix with mutual friend Raquel Leviss. And while Madix was justifiably angry, Kennedy and Kent seemed to be just as outraged to the point where podcast host Hannah Ferrier and influencer Amir Yass wondered if they were just trying to cash in on making “memeable” moments.

Below Deck Mediterranean almost took a very different turn if chief stew Hannah Ferrier followed up on her attempt to quit the show during season 2. Ferrier, who was fired midway through Below Deck Med Season 5 recently said she was so exasperated during season 2 that she packed her bags and was ready to leave the boat.
The reasons were likely due to conflict with crew members like Christine “Bugsy” Drake and deckhand Bobby Giancola.
But she revealed there was an instance where she quit after a guest picked her up by her throat prior to being on Below Deck Med.

Hannah Ferrier from Below Deck Mediterranean learned the hard way to always do her homework before appearing on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen. Ferrier was a Wwhl guest during her final season of Below Deck Med and realized she hadn’t watched the episode they were about to discuss.
She was six months pregnant and Wwhl filmed virtually. But Ferrier said the fact she appeared on camera completely in the dark had to be one of her most cringeworthy moments.

Ferrier’s final season, Below Deck Med Season 5 aired during the pandemic. And while Wwhl still aired, the late-night talk show was filmed 100% virtually. But it was still broadcast on the national Bravo platform.

From Below Deck Mediterranean Season 1, chief stew Hannah Ferrier had that certain je ne sais quoi that made for compelling television.
Ferrier recently reflected on why viewers couldn’t get enough of her and it all came down to her feeling “uncomfortable” on the show. In the past, she’s talked about having anxiety while filming. And recently discussed how being around so many people on camera at once was simply awkward.

Franco earned a bad reputation on his first season of Below Deck Med. He had a huge conflict with chief stew Hannah Ferrier and flirted with Cohen while also trying to date second stew, Brooke Laughton. Cohen agreed that what was shown of Franco did portray him as a villain. But there was plenty of footage showing Franco’s softer, kinder side that never made the show.

But she wasn’t laughing after her departure from the show. Foster was hired when stew Anastasia Surmava took over as chef when the original chef was fired. Surmava’s time as the chef was short-lived and the stress caused her to return back to being a stew. Foster was let go and she seemed rattled and pretty upset at the time.
Foster recently told Showbiz Cheat Sheet that she privately struggled off the show due to backlash and online bullying.

Known for his one-liners, Captain Lee Rosbach from Below Deck referred to Tom Sandoval as a “poor man’s Johnny Depp” amid the Vanderpump Rules scandal.
Also coined as “Scandoval,” the Vanderpump Rules affair between Sandoval and Raquel Leviss rocked the Bravo world, prompting Bravolebs from other shows, like Below Deck, to comment. The reason why the affair was so shocking is that Sandoval was in a decade-long relationship with Ariana Madix – who has been a longtime friend and supporter of Leviss.
This isn’t the first time Rosbach dipped his toe into the Vanderpump Rules drama. Rosbach and Jax Taylor once had their own social media feud.

Former Below Deck Mediterranean chief stew Hannah Ferrier says that while there is plenty of drama on Below Deck, the Vanderpump Rules cheating scandal brings reality TV to an entirely different level.
Ferrier, who experienced her own drama during her final season of Below Deck Med said filming a reality show focused on the workplace stings far less than a show that follows personal relationships.
News recently broke that Tom Sandoval from Vanderpump Rules cheated on long-term girlfriend Ariana Madix with Raquel Leviss, who was in their friend group.
In fact, when James Kennedy proposed to Leviss a few years ago, Sandoval helped to bankroll the expensive proposal. Leviss and Kennedy broke up during last year’s Vanderpump Rules reunion and her storyline this season was that she hoped to hook up with newly divorced Tom Schwartz.
Thanks to the cheating scandal, filming was extended for Vanderpump Rules Season 10 to capture the latest development.

Below Deck cast members receive some pretty wild direct messages on social media, but Mzi “Zee” Dempers from Below Deck Mediterranean revealed a recent Dm from a fan who requested a threesome with his girlfriend.
Dempers, who usually maintains a low profile, said he’s not the only Below Deck Med cast member to hear from this particular fan. And that chef Dave White from season 7 also got the same request.
‘Below Deck Med’ crew got the same salacious DMs
Dempers said there is a “dude” who has propositioned both him and White. “He sends videos having sex with his girlfriend asking me to come and join [them],” Dempers revealed on the Total Ship Show podcast.

Fraser Olender pushed back as being pegged as frazzled on the latest Below Deck, tweeting that his department did well despite the criticism.
During the preference sheet meeting, Captain Sandy Yawn praised chef Rachel Hargrove and bosun Ross McHarg for the progress they made. She then turned to Olender and told him to turn his team around. He was livid even though he calmly swallowed the remark.
Fraser said his ‘Below Deck’ team was ‘gold’
But on Twitter, he disputed that his team was a mess. “Not really sure of this week’s edit to be very honest… We felt great, no stress, no one frazzled, everything under control, all smiles – aside from the bad energy from chef and Cap, we were gold!” he tweeted.
