The Thursday Murder Club, based on Richard Osman's best-selling novel, has made its cinematic debut, with Netflix streaming set for later this month. Fans have been delighted by the star-studded cast, which includes Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan, Ben Kingsley and Celia Imrie as the four amateur sleuths.
Among the many recognisable faces is Joseph Marcell, best known for his role as Geoffrey Butler in The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. The 77-year-old actor appears as Father Mackie in the film, a character who speaks in a couple of scenes set in the retirement home Coopers Chase.
Marcell played the sardonic butler Geoffrey throughout the entire run of the hit 1990s sitcom. He has since appeared in numerous UK TV shows such as The Bill, Holby City, EastEnders and the recent reboot Bel-Air.
The Thursday Murder Club premieres in cinemas on Friday, August 22, and will be available on Netflix from Thursday, August 28.
