Armie Hammer boards Death on the Nile

One-time caped crusader Armie Hammer will join ‘Wonder Woman’ Gal Gadot in director Kenneth Branagh’s “Death on the Nile”.

Based on the classic libretto by Agatha Christie, the film follows Branagh’s adaptation of “Murder on the Orient Express”, which snared a sumly $352.7 million worldwide.
Branagh is expected to reprise his role as eccentric detective Hercule Poirot in the film.

Gal Gadot was announced for the film a few days back.

It’s not known who Hammer, fresh from his success in “Call Me By Your Name”, will play in the flick.

For the unversed, “Death on the Nile” – due December 2019 – sees Poirot on vacation in Egypt where he ends up investigating a murder that resulted from a love triangle.
