If Kenneth Branagh‘s facially hirstute turn as Agatha Christie‘s detective Hercule Poirot in Murder on the Orient Express made you a fan, you don’t have to wait for Branagh to find time to do the sequel for more. While the character will once again be Branagh-portrayed on the big screen, here on our TVs he is busy being John Malkovich in The ABC Murders. Starting February 1st, you can watch Malkovich’s take on the character in a limited series that already aired on BBC One in the UK, and will be an Amazon Prime exclusive here.A hallmark of Poirot in any incarnation has always been his Belgian accent, and Malkovich’s take on that is as amusing as you might expect. But he definitely has the look of somebody you don’t want to commit a murder around down pat.
