Guy Pearce, Hannah Waddingham, Gugu Mbatha-Raw and More Join Keira Knightley in Netflix’s Mystery ‘The Woman in Cabin 10’

As a seasoned cinephile who has witnessed the evolution of cinematic storytelling across the decades, I find myself utterly intrigued by the assemblage of talent in Netflix’s upcoming mystery thriller “The Woman in Cabin 10.” With a cast boasting heavyweights like Guy Pearce, Hannah Waddingham, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, and Keira Knightley, among others, this project promises to deliver a nerve-wracking suspense ride that I simply cannot wait to embark on.


Actors Guy Pearce, Hannah Waddingham, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, among others, have signed on to be part of Netflix’s movie version of the popular mystery novel “The Woman in Cabin 10” by Ruth Ware. Keira Knightley will lead the cast.

Netflix unveiled that stars such as Guy Pearce (“Memento”), Brendan Waddingham (“Ted Lasso”), Daniel Ings (“The Gentlemen”), David Morrissey (“Sherwood”), Kaya Scodelario (from “The Gentlemen” and the “Maze Runner” series), and Michaela Coel (“The Morning Show”) will be part of the cast. Additionally, David Ajala, Art Malik, Lisa Loven Kongsli, Gitte Witt, Christopher Rygh, and Paapa Essiedu have also been added to the cast ensemble.

The movie centers around a travel reporter (Knightley), who is assigned to write about a lavish yacht. However, her peaceful sleep is disturbed by screams in the dead of night. Inquisitive, she searches for the source and accidentally sees someone being pushed overboard from the cabin next to hers. The next day, no one seems to care about her account as everyone on board is accounted for. This event triggers a series of events that lead to an edge-of-your-seat suspenseful tale.

The movie is helmed by Simon Stone, who has previously collaborated with Netflix on the period drama “The Dig,” featuring Carey Mulligan, Ralph Fiennes, and Lily James. This production is jointly established by Elizabeth Murdoch and Jane Featherstone, with Cindy Holland at the helm. Debra Hayward is involved in the production, while Ilda Diffley serves as an executive producer for Sister.

Upcoming projects for Pearce include “The Shrouds” directed by David Cronenberg and “The Brutalist” from Brady Corbet. Waddingham was last seen in “The Fall Guy” and will appear in “Mission: Impossible 8.” Mbatha-Raw’s recent appearances include the “Loki” series on Disney+ and Netflix’s movie “Lift.
