The Thursday Murder Club (2025) is a charming crime-comedy thriller directed by Chris Columbus and based on Richard Osman’s bestselling novel. It follows four retired sleuths— a former spy, nurse, psychiatrist and union leader—living at Cooper’s Chase retirement village, who find themselves embroiled in a real murder case when a developer turns up dead on their doorstep. With a star-studded ensemble including Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan, Ben Kingsley and Celia Imrie, the film blends cozy mystery, wit and heartwarming camaraderie into a delightful whodunit.
