Netflix is set to release an adaptation of Ruth Ware's bestselling novel, The Woman in Cabin 10, featuring Hannah Waddingham in a pivotal role - and we predict it might become our favourite whodunnit of the year.

Directed by Simon Stone (The Dig) and featuring a star-studded cast, the upcoming thriller promises to be a must-watch for those who love suspenseful, edge-of-your-seat entertainment. Here’s everything you need to know about The Woman in Cabin 10, including its plot, cast, and release date.

What is The Woman in Cabin 10 about?

The Woman in Cabin 10 follows Lo Blacklock (Keira Knightley), a travel journalist who lands what seems to be a dream assignment on a luxury cruise ship.

But her excitement quickly turns to fear when she witnesses what she believes to be a murder - only to be told that the woman she saw never existed. As Lo looks for answers, she faces danger at every turn.

Who's starring in The Woman in Cabin 10?

While Keira Knightley leads the film, we're particularly excited about the inclusion of Hannah Waddingham, the Emmy-winning Ted Lasso star, in a mysterious supporting role.
