Following on from the success of spy drama Black Doves, Keira Knightley returns to Netflix for tense thriller The Woman in Cabin 10, which has just confirmed a release date.
The movie from director Simon Stone is adapted from the book of the same name by Ruth Ware, which has been described as a "twisty puzzle" that's "terrifically tense" in reviews.
Now, Netflix has announced the must-see British thriller will hit the streamer globally on 10 October.
Announced last year, The Woman in Cabin 10 follows Knightley as a journalist travelling aboard a luxury cruise for a work assignment.
While on the job, she witnesses a passenger being thrown overboard late at night and tries to get to the bottom of it.

Although she's told all crew and passengers are accounted for and that she must be mistaken, she is determined to find out the truth. As no one believes her story, she's ready to risk her life to dig deeper.
The contained thriller has a stacked cast joining Knightley, with supporting roles played by the likes of The Gentlemen's Kaya Scodelario, Guy Pearce, Hannah Waddingham, Paul Kaye, David Ajala, Gugu Mbatha-Raw and David Morrissey, among others.
Knightley is expected to reprise the role of Helen Webb in season 2 of Netflix's Black Doves opposite Ben Whishaw and Sarah Lancashire.
Ahead of the show releasing in December 2024, the streamer had already confirmed that Helen's double life story would continue in another instalment.
Black Doves creator Joe Barton has weighed in on the "pressure" of working on two seasons before the first had even streamed.

"It's a different kind of pressure now," he told Deadline at the time.
"When you do a show, you are always wanting it to do well to get a second season, but now they've already let us come back, the pressure is about hoping it does well to reward that faith."
The Woman in Cabin 10 streams on Netflix on 10 October.
Black Doves season 1 is streaming on the same platform now, with a second season being confirmed.
