Agatha Christie\u2019s Seven Dials is set in 1925, when a party taking place at a country house turns deadly. Lady Eileen \u201cBundle\u201d Brent, played by Mia McKenna-Bruce, takes the lead in the investigation into what she discovers to be a murder plot. Lady Caterham (Helena Bonham Carter) and Superintendent Battle (Martin Freeman) assist Bundle in solving the mystery, which will change her life forever. When asked about starring in the new series, McKenna-Bruce said, \u201cChris Chibnall\u2019s scripts are brilliant, and I\u2019m thrilled to be part of this new interpretation of the iconic Agatha Christie\u2019s storytelling.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI am excited to be bringing Agatha Christie\u2019s Seven Dials to life and to be introducing a new generation of iconic Christie characters to the screen,\u201d says executive producer Suzanne Mackie<\/a>, who previously worked on The Crown for Netflix. \u201cIt has been a joy to work with Chris Chibnall in creating this bold, authored, and ambitious vision for the series. Together with Chris Sussman and Agatha Christie Limited and under the masterful direction of Chris Sweeney, we are thrilled to embark on this creative journey. I could not think of a more exciting first project for Orchid Pictures or a more perfect home for this story than Netflix.\u201d<\/p>\n

When asked how he felt about his great-grandmother\u2019s work being adapted by the streaming giant, Christie\u2019s great-grandson, James Prichard, who is credited as an executive producer and manages the literary and media rights to Christie\u2019s works via Agatha Christie Limited, said, \u201cBundle Brent is one of my great-grandmother\u2019s raft of interesting, humorous, and sharp young female characters. To see her brought to life through the words of Chris Chibnall and this production with Orchid Pictures and Netflix is a dream come true. I think viewers will love this world that we have created, and hope for more.\u201d<\/p>\n
