Agatha Christie’s great detective Hercule Poirot hasn’t been portrayed on the screen quite as often as say, Sherlock Holmes, but like Homes, it is a role that has been played by some of the world’s finest actors. And each one comes at the character in a slightly different way and bringing something unique and interesting to the role. The most recent Poirot on screen is Kenneth Branagh, who played the character in the film Murder on the Orient Express, and will again, eventually, in Death on the Nile. But iconic actor David Suchet hasn’t seen this new version yet.
