Hercule poirot evil under the sun5/13/2023 When asked how he felt about portraying Hercule Poirot, Ustinov said, "I find Poirot a very engaging character, although he's quite awful, really. The movie was actually shot in various locations in Majorca, Spain, with interior shooting done at the Lee International Studios in Wembley, London. The three previous films had been more-or-less faithful adaptations, but the setting for Evil Under the Sun was moved from the Devon coast of England (reportedly because the hotel that inspired the film was being renovated) to the Mediterranean. This was the fourth Agatha Christie film adaptation by EMI, who had also produced The Mirror Crack'd (1980). Co-starring with Ustinov were Diana Rigg, Jane Birkin, who was also in another Christie adaptation, Death on the Nile (1978), Nicholas Clay, Maggie Smith, Roddy McDowall, Sylvia Miles, James Mason and Colin Blakely, who had appeared in Murder on the Orient Express (1974). Share Evil Under the Sun (1982), based on Agatha Christie's 1941 novel of the same name, with a screenplay by Anthony Shaffer and Barry Sandler, marked the second time that Peter Ustinov played the role of Christie's Belgian sleuth, Hercule Poirot.
