History Trivia / OrdealByInnocence

* TroubledProduction: The mini-series was well into post-production when the decision was made to replace Creator/EdWestwick with Creator/ChristianCooke, (see main page) and approximately three-quarters of an hour worth of scenes had to be re-shot in twelve days. (Creator/AliceEve couldn't make it at all, and had to be screen-shotted in.)

** Finally, the 2017 version stars Creator/BillNighy, Anna Chancellor, Creator/MatthewGoode and Creator/EdWestwick (though the latter was replaced).

** The ''Series/{{Marple}}'' version had Jane Seymour as Rachel, as well as Juliet Stevenson, Creator/RichardArmitage, Creator/StephanieLeonidas, Creator/GuguMbathaRaw, and [[Series/{{Torchwood}} Burn Gorman]].

* AllStarCast: All the adaptations. The 1985 movie starred Creator/DonaldSutherland as Calgary, with Creator/FayeDunaway and Creator/ChristopherPlummer as Rachel and Leo Argyle. The ''Series/{{Marple}}'' version had Jane Seymour as Rachel, as well as Juliet Stevenson, Creator/RichardArmitage, Creator/StephanieLeonidas, and [[Series/{{Torchwood}} Burn Gorman]].

(Alice Eve couldn't make it at all, and had to be screen-shotted in) This may have even longer lasting repercussions: Ordeal by Innocence was the first book to be adapted in a seven-book contract between the BBC and the Christie estate, to take place over four years. But as of May 2018, filming of the next adaptation (either Literature/DeathComesAsTheEnd, or Literature/TheABCMurders, presumably minus Poirot) has yet to be announced by the BBC.
** The long-term prospects of the deal seem to have recovered: ''Literature/TheABCMurders'' (with Creator/JohnMalkovich as Poirot!) will be showing on the BBC in 2018, returning to the usual Christie slot of 26-28 December (previously occupied by ''And Then There Were None'' in 2015 and ''The Witness for the Prosecution'' in 2016). ''Death Comes As The End'' now has a release date of sometime in 2019, too.
