Why Glass Onion Director Rian Johnson Didn't Write A Character Bible For Daniel Craig's Benoit Blanc
To tell a good mystery story, a writer doesn't need to unravel their detective like they do the mystery itself. In the stories of Agatha Christie and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the backstory is reserved for the suspects, victims, and the killers. The detective is a mere proxy, a character in the same shoes as the reader.
Nowadays, this isn't always the case. In the 21st century, detective stories carry more prestige than they did in the 19th or 20th because of Doyle and Christie's works. The rise in the genre has come with a change in how authors approach such stories as well. Take Tana French and her fantastic "Dublin Murder Squad" book series — each book follows a different detective who all come upon a case linked to their past. In solving it, each detective's self-perception is thrown up in the air. The series' formula is inextricable from how French develops her characters.

Andrew J. Graff's debut novel Raft of Stars (out March 23) is a dark, heart-pounding adventure following two boys just old enough to realize that there's real danger lurking in the trees, but it's not the kind that can hurt them most. The year is 1994, and 10-year-old Dale "Bread" Breadwin lives in terror of his drunk, abusive father in their small house at the edge of the Northwoods. He escapes by spending as much time as possible with his best friend, Fischer "Fish" Branson, who lives at his grandfather's farm every summer, dodging his own ghosts.
The tense tranquility falls apart one night when Fish lashes out in defense of his friend and both boys plunge into the forest with a dangerously incomplete understanding of what they've just done. Following in their wake are a ragged group of adults, including a sheriff questioning the profession to which he's dedicated his life...

In her new role, Lewis will head the label’s drama team and report to Tracy Underwood, EVP of creative affairs for ABC Signature, beginning Aug. 31.

[Editor’s Note: The following interview contains spoilers for the entire season of “Dublin Murders,” including tonight’s season finale, and the novel “In the Woods.”]
In the opening moments of “Dublin Murders”, we see Detective Cassie Maddox (Sarah Greene) sever her relationship with her partner, Detective Rob Reilly (Killian Scott). Eight episodes later, we see why: the web of lies — both personal and professional — built by the two dissolve in the most public of ways, endangering the integrity of their work on the Katy Devlin and Lexie Madison murder cases. Rob has been revealed to be Adam, the sole survivor of a decades-old incident in the Knocknaree Woods where two other children went missing; Cassie’s undercover work as Lexie has been blown by her housemates.
In an exclusive interview with IndieWire, showrunner Sarah Phelps talks about the process of adapting Tana French’s massively popular novels for TV, finding the perfect actors to play Rob and Cassie — and what happens when...

And then, suddenly, everyone is living a lie.
At the end of this evening’s episode of “Dublin Murders” Det. Cassie Maddox (Sarah Greene) returns to undercover work in the form of Lexie, her doppelgänger murder victim who was using the name of one of Cassie’s previous undercover identities.
Yes, this sounds totally batshit. But “Dublin Murders” is an adaptation of the first two novels in Tana French’s Dublin Murder Squad series — “In the Woods” and “The Likeness” — and, like the books, it’s not just a typical cop procedural. It’s a look at how childhood trauma resonates and warps experiences, perceptions and constructs of reality.
It’s an explosive moment that sets up the back half of the series, marking the official transition away from “In the Woods” into the storyline of “The Likeness,” as Det. Rob Reilly (Killian Scott) and Cassie...

There is a lot of water imagery in “Dublin Murders,” from the perpetual Irish rain to shots of the Irish Sea. It’s atmospheric, but it also serves a bigger purpose: a reminder that far off ripples can expand into devastating waves.
Based on the first two novels in Tana French’s bestselling and Edgar Award-winning Dublin Murder Squad series, “In the Woods” and “The Likeness,” “Dublin Murders” is, on the surface, about two homicide detectives, Rob Reilly (Killian Scott) and Cassie Maddox (Sarah Greene), trying to solve the murder of a young girl whose body was found ritually posed at an archaeological dig in the woods. In was in these same woods 20 years earlier where two children disappeared, leaving behind their friend who was found hugging a tree and screaming, wearing ripped clothes and shoes filled with another child’s blood.

Throughout production on Starz’s Dublin Murders, one of its stars says, you could never quite tell when winter might be coming.
The crime thriller, which premieres Sunday (8/7c), shot many of its outdoor scenes in the woods of Belfast, where Game of Thrones filmed. And even though the HBO fantasy series wrapped a while back, “They had walking tours,” Killian Scott tells TVLine, laughing. “And it’s like, ‘Where are the bodies?!,’ and then, ‘Cut, we’ve got Hodor in the background.’ And you look over, and there’s a dude in the full Hodor costume.”

For whatever reason, mysteries produced in the UK and Europe tend to have more atmosphere.
If you're a fan of shows like Top of the Lake and The Fall, you need to watch Dublin Murders, a moody, atomopheric drama drawing upon rich history and deep secrets.
Starring Sarah Green and Killian Scott, it's an adaptation of two Tana French novels adapted by screenwriter Sarah Phelps.
As a big fan of UK dramas, this one was a no-brainer for me, but it had the added appeal of starring Scott, who I found mesmerizing in Irish drama Love/Hate.
While it's not well-known in the Us (and that's a shame), it set a high standard for Irish productions. The lush, often gloomy scenery of Dublin Murders is much different than the city streets featured in Love/Hate, but both extraordinarily showcase Ireland.

A week is a long time in British politics and even longer if the future of the big-budget drama that you make depends on how the UK government deals with the future of Northern Ireland after Brexit.

“Luther” creator Neil Cross is adapting his own novel of murder and the supernatural into a four-part series, “Because the Night,” for British commercial broadcaster ITV.
The drama is being produced by Euston Films, the classic label revived five years ago by Fremantle, which will oversee international distribution. Polly Hill, ITV’s head of drama, commissioned the series, which is based on Cross’ book “Burial.”
The show centers on Nathan, a well-meaning but aimless man who harbors a dark secret and is shaken when a figure from his past shows up on his doorstep. “I’m truly excited to be working with ITV to make ‘Because the Night,’” said Cross. “It’s one of my favorite stories: a tale of psychological suspense, of guilt and ghosts and murder. Oh, and love. Always love.”
Hill described the series as a “gripping contemporary thriller, which is both chilling and compelling.”

What to read while you wait for David Fincher’s adaptation of Gillian Flynn’s blockbuster novel, Gone Girl (or to fill the void once you’ve seen it)? You’ve already conquered Flynn’s own backlist, and you’ve read all the Tana French you can get your hands on. You need a book that will grab your attention and mess with your head like Gone Girl. A spirited tale that will make you question the foundations of marriage and whether or not you can ever truly know another person, maybe where a woman literally leaves or goes missing, with an unconventional structure, shifting narrative perspective, slow reveals, insight into the everyday horror of existing as a woman in the world, and hopefully, some suspense.
