“Murder is forever.” The world’s most delightful, sharp-tongued, and unstoppable retiree detectives are back for another thrilling mystery in The Thursday Murder Club 2: Death at Cooper’s Chase (2026). Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan, Ben Kingsley, Celia Imrie, and an ensemble cast including Imelda Staunton, Bill Nighy, and Dev Patel bring their brilliant chemistry and wit to a new, twist-packed investigation that’s sure to keep you guessing.
The idyllic retirement village of Cooper’s Chase seems like the perfect place for the club’s members to enjoy their golden years, but serenity is shattered when a beloved gardener is found dead in the community greenhouse. The police quickly label it an accident, but for Elizabeth (Helen Mirren), Ron (Pierce Brosnan), Ibrahim (Ben Kingsley), and Joyce (Celia Imrie), there’s something far more sinister at play. With their keen investigative instincts, they sense foul play—but what starts as an unusual death turns into something much bigger.
The discovery of an encrypted ledger hidden beneath the greenhouse floor ignites a journey into a labyrinth of long-buried secrets, old grudges, blackmail, and even a decades-old art heist that was never solved. The stakes escalate when they find themselves tangled up with some of the wealthiest, most influential figures in the village—Imelda Staunton plays a suspicious donor with a lot to hide, while Bill Nighy’s charming antiques dealer adds to the mounting intrigue. Dev Patel enters as a tech-savvy newcomer with a knack for hacking, making him an essential player in the investigation—and an enigma in his own right.
As more bodies pile up, the Thursday Murder Club realizes that the murderer is always one step ahead, leading to more than one failed assassination attempt. This is no longer just a case of solving a murder; it’s a race to outwit a shadowy criminal and protect the ones they love. But things hit even closer to home when one of the club’s own members becomes the killer’s next target, forcing Elizabeth to confront a past she’d rather leave buried.
The stakes are higher than ever, leading the team into a final showdown involving a hidden vault, a forged masterpiece, and an unexpected yoga class that provides both comic relief and high tension. In the end, the Thursday Murder Club’s trademark blend of wit, humor, and unexpected brilliance shines through as they piece together clues from a time before smartphones, CCTV, or even their hip replacements.
The Thursday Murder Club 2: Death at Cooper’s Chase is a brilliantly witty, heartfelt, and deliciously clever addition to the franchise, offering a perfect blend of old-school whodunit charm with modern twists. It proves that while age may be just a number, murder? Murder is forever.
Movie Rating: 9/10 – A rollicking, thrilling mystery full of unexpected turns, sharp humor, and a brilliant ensemble cast. If you loved the first installment, you’ll be delighted by the cleverness and suspense of this new chapter.
