Overview

• Netflix released The Woman in Cabin 10 on Oct. 10, with Keira Knightley leading a mystery set aboard a luxury vessel.
• Adapted from Ruth Ware’s 2016 novel, the film is directed by Simon Stone from a screenplay by Joe Shrapnel and Anna Waterhouse.
• The ending diverges from the book with a more cinematic, action‑forward final stretch, a focal point of post‑release coverage.
• Stone has publicly discussed a modern, identity‑and‑surveillance angle that reframes the story without giving away plot specifics.
• Reviews characterize a tight roughly 92‑minute thriller shot on an actual megayacht, praising Knightley and atmosphere while noting thin characterization and a conventional late climax.
