10 Movie Sequels You Didn't Know Were Coming In 2020

1. Death On The Nile

Murder On The Orient Express Kenneth Branagh
Fox

Sequel to 2017's stylish Murder On The Orient Express, Death On The Nile will open in October 2020, almost three years after the original. It didn't feel like the first made too much of a splash, but it actually grossed $352 million worldwide, a healthy sum considering its relatively low $55 million budget.

The original Death On The Nile novel saw detective Hercule Poirot journey to Egypt, getting involved in a deadly love triangle along the way. Presumably, the film will follow this same outline. Kenneth Branagh will be back to direct and star, with Gal Gadot and Armie Hammer joining him for the ride.

One of the most appealing things about the first film was its enormous all-star cast, with the likes of Johnny Depp, Josh Gad, Daisy Ridley, Judi Dench, Willem Dafoe, Olivia Colman and Michelle Pfeiffer all having a part to play. With that in mind, expect Death On The Nile's cast to fill out substantially before it enters production later this year.

Also, expect Branagh to once again sport his majestic, gravity-defying moustache.

In 2022, he took charge of WhoCulture and has grown it into the biggest Doctor Who channel on YouTube, and one of the biggest Doctor Who communities on the web full-stop. He has been writing and video editing since his early teens, and first got a taste for content creation after making his own Doctor Who trailers, off the back of a burning obsession with the Matt Smith era of the show. Like many his age, he first got into Doctor Who with the 2005 revival, but has since gone back and fallen in love with the classic years too. If you need someone to recite every Doctor Who episode in order, or to give you a random factoid about the making of Gridlock, Danny is the person to ask!
