Corey Mylchreest also stars as the murder victim. The series is written by Chris Chibnall, best known as the showrunner of Doctor Who and the writer of Broadchurch, and directed by Chris Sweeney.
The series is described as an interpretation of Agatha Christie's eponymous novel. The story was earlier adapted into a television film, with Cheryl Campbell playing Brent. Suzanne Mackie is executive producing the series for Orchid Pictures, alongside Chibnall for Imaginary Friends, James Prichard for Agatha Christie Limited, Chris Sussman, and Andy Stebbing. On the other hand, Joanna Crow is producing it. The series will premiere on Netflix on January 15
