A Murder at the End of the World brings us tech trillionaire Andy Ronson (Clive Owen) – the kind of guy that reckons he can solve the climate crisis by hashing out a few blue-sky theories over dinners with an assemblage of the planet's foremost luminaries. It's an ostensibly sincere idea if a touch delusional, though the involvement of hacker and amateur detective Darby Hart (Emma Corrin) feels instructive, as does the setting: a secluded hotel deep in the Icelandic freeze...
You can watch A Murder at the End of the World from Tuesday, November 14 on Hulu in the US and via the Star section of Disney Plus in the UK, Australia and elsewhere.
US: Hulu (free trial)
UK: Disney Plus
AUS: Disney Plus
The brainchild of Brit Marling and Zal Batmanglij, who created The OA – which was inexplicably canceled in spite of its outstanding reviews and dedicated following – A Murder at the End of the World is more grounded in reality than their previous project, focusing on technological concerns including climate change, AI, surveillance and data, while taking cues from Glass Onion and Girl With the Dragon Tattoo.
Having made a name for herself with a written account detailing how she and her then-boyfriend Bill Farrah (Harris Dickinson) outsmarted a serial killer when they were teenagers, Darby reluctantly accepts the invitation to rub shoulders with the pageant of uber-wealthy scholars in Andy's circle, a number that includes scientists, astronauts, smart city developers and, to her immense surprise, Bill.
And when a suspicious death is brushed under the carpet, Darby realizes that she must acclimate to get to the heart of what's really going on. This seven-part mystery will keep you guessing to the end, so read on below as we explain how to watch A Murder at the End of the World online now – from anywhere in the world.
