Actor Ali Fazal is set to share screen space with "Wonder Woman" star Gald Gadot in 20th Century Fox's upcoming adaptation of Agatha Christie's "Death on the Nile".

The film is a follow-up to the studio's 2017 blockbuster "Murder on the Orient Express", also an adaptation of Christie's novel of the same name.

Kenneth Branagh, who helmed the first part, will return to the director's chair for the new project and reprise his role of the mustachioed Belgian detective Hercule Poirot.

Fazal has made a name for himself in Hollywood with films such as "Furious 7" and period drama "Victoria & Abdul", also starring veteran actor Judi Dench.

In a statement, the 32-year-old actor said, "Yes, I am part of this wonderful journey and I look forward to being a part of it. My mother and I have always been huge fans of Agatha Christie novels."
