Pierce Brosnan's British Crime Thriller With His 'MobLand' Co-Stars Is an Instant Streaming Hit

This weekend, the biggest new hit didn’t come from theaters at all — it came from Netflix. While Darren Aronofsky's Caught Stealing and the Benedict Cumberbatch and Olivia Colman-led The Roses had buzzy debuts, the long-awaited adaptation of Richard Osman’s The Thursday Murder Club has already stolen the spotlight. The film rocketed straight to the top of Netflix’s global charts upon its release, instantly establishing itself as one of the platform’s most successful late-summer launches.
