Retirement homes are supposed to be for, well, retirement. But rest, relaxation, and pinochle aren’t in the cards for one set of seniors. This group of unlikely sleuths has uncovered a murder case, and they’re willing to risk their lives to solve it. They’re The Thursday Murder Club, and they’re coming to Netflix in a new movie. Based on the bestselling novel by Richard Osman, this is a whodunit with teeth — false ones, of course.
