Everyone wants to kill Johnny Depp in the first full-length trailer of the upcoming 'Murder on the Orient Express'.

The makers unveiled the second trailer for Kenneth Branagh's star-studded remake and it looks like we are in for a crazy ride.

The trailer starts with Depp's character asking Poirot (Kenneth Branagh), "Would you mind if I join you? You're the world-famous detective Hercule Poirot. Avenger of the innocent, is that what they call you in the papers?"

After which the mustachioed Belgian asks, "And you are innocent?" to which Ratchett laughed and replies, "You're fun."

The 'Pirates of the Caribbean' star was later seen ominously telling Branagh's Poirot, "Cannot trust a one. Not a one."

Then we hear a scream and a gunshot which gives the idea that someone has been murdered.

The movie adaptation of Agatha Christie's 1934 detective novel has an incredibly talented ensemble of 17, many of whom play suspects of Ratchett's murder.

"A real killer is right here. One of you people," the 59-year-old Oscar nominee said, deflecting the blame.

To which Mrs. Hubbard (Michelle Pfeiffer) says, "A man was rummaging around my cabin in the middle of the night."

When Hercule asked Hubbard if she was sure it was a man, she replies, "I know what it feels like to have a man in my bedroom."

The trailer looks intense and gripping, Branagh's Poirot looks spot on.

The footage of Branagh's version promises a darker version of 'Murder on the Orient Express'.

Set to a remixed rendition of Imagine Dragons' latest hit 'Believer,' the trailer shows all these characters turn on each other as Poirot tries to piece together the clues and shreds of evidence.

Helmed by Kenneth Branagh, the movie also stars Daisy Ridley, Penelope Cruz, Josh Gad, Willem Dafoe, Judi Dench, Leslie Odom Jr., Tom Bateman, Michelle Pfeiffer, Derek Jacobi, Marwan Kenzari, Olivia Colman, Lucy Boynton and Sergei Polunin.

The movie is set to release on November 10, 2017 in the US.
