The Woman in Cabin 10 (2025)

The Woman in Cabin 10 is a suspenseful horror thriller directed by Simon Stone, adapted from the bestselling novel by Ruth Ware. This 2025 cinematic interpretation follows travel journalist Laura Blacklock, portrayed by Keira Knightley, as she embarks on a luxurious cruise aboard a private ship traveling through the scenic waters of Northern Europe. What starts as a dream assignment quickly transforms into a waking nightmare when Laura witnesses a terrifying incident no one else seems to believe.

As Laura settles into her stay, she becomes friendly with a mysterious woman occupying the cabin next to hers. However, when a chilling event occurs and the woman vanishes without a trace, Laura is thrust into a perilous situation. Denied by the ship’s staff and fellow passengers, she must untangle a complex web of lies and deception while battling her own doubts and fears.

The film’s tension is heightened by strong supporting performances, including Hannah Waddingham, Guy Pearce, and Kaya Scodelario, each portraying enigmatic characters with hidden motives. The claustrophobic atmosphere of the cruise ship combined with the isolation of the open sea amplifies the terror as Laura races against time to uncover the truth.
