12 roles
Meticulous and exacting, Poirot is a keen observer of detail and an astute judge of character. Certain that the crime was committed by someone on the train, he confidently and patiently works his way to a shocking solution. Poirot is Belgian and speaks with a Belgian/French accent.
A middle-aged American businessman, Ratchett is brusque and unforgiving, with a threatening demeanor and a whiplash of a voice. He’s made plenty of enemies.
Countess Eléna Andrenyi is out of a fairy tale. Brilliantly beautiful and always dressed to the nines in furs and diamonds. She seems too good to be true.
A Scotsman in his mid-thirties, Arbuthnot is handsome and very matter of fact. He’s hopelessly in love with Mary.
A young middle-aged man of good humor, Monsieur Bouc is an old friend of Poirot’s. He appears removed from the crime, often acting as Poirot’s sounding board.
An English beauty, Mary bears a certain sadness in her eyes. When she first appears, she is very anxious.
The Russian princess, now in her seventies, enters her compartment “like a galleon in full sail.” Expensively dressed and handsomely bejeweled, she certainly wouldn’t need to kill for money.
Professional in demeanor, he is knowledgeable and a bit overconfident.
An outspoken American, well dressed with a touch of flamboyance, Mrs. Hubbard is a tough-talking woman with rough edge and a bold sense of humor.
A nervous young American with a strained, rather beleaguered face, Hector appears to be suppressing something.
A good-looking Frenchman, about forty, Michel has a quiet, almost grave sense of humor.
Plain and modest, Greta has a frightened, sheep-like quality about her. There is something odd about this woman.
