Murder on the Orient Express
Synopsis
A modern adaptation of Agatha Christie's classic whodunit, the story follows world-famous sleuth Hercule Poirot as he returns to London aboard the luxurious Orient Express after completing a case in Istanbul. The train halts suddenly when a rock slide blocks the tracks ahead. The atmosphere shifts when a man is discovered dead in his compartment, stabbed nine times. With the train stranded and no passengers having boarded or disembarked, it becomes clear that the killer is among the passengers. It falls to Poirot to uncover the identity of the murderer.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 19
These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.
Why a floor?
This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
