And Then There Were None — Trailer

added: Thu, Mar 3rd '16

Ten strangers stuck on a secluded island. A mysterious host with a hidden and deadly agenda. Dinner, murder, and a creepy death poem. It's all part of a "cruel hoax," Charles Dance declares in the trailer for "And Then There Were None," Lifetime's upcoming two-night miniseries based on Agatha Christie's 1939 classic murder-mystery novel.

The former "Game of Thrones" star is among the many British actors who shape the production's strong ensemble cast that includes Sam Neill, Toby Stephens, Miranda Richardson, Noah Taylor, Douglas Booth, Maeve Dermody, Burn Gorman, Anna Maxwell Martin, and Aidan Turner.

Directed by British helmer Craig Viveiros (The Liability) and adapted by British writer Sarah Phelps (Dickensian, The Casual Vacancy, EastEnders), the two-part mystery thriller, which already aired in the UK in late December, will be making its American debut next week, premiering Sunday, March 13th on the Lifetime Network.

synopsis:
Set in 1939 while Europe teeters on the brink of war, "And Then There Were None" follows ten strangers with dubious pasts who are lured to Soldier Island, an isolated rock near the Devon coast in southern England. Cut off from the mainland, with their hosts mysteriously absent, they are each accused of a terrible crime, and when members of the party start to mysteriously die, they all realize they may be harboring a murderer among their number. Who will survive? And who is the killer?
