In a newly added plot to the movie, it is revealed that she had Poirot look into the Otterbournes and the relationship to find out if anything was amiss. In Agatha Christie's Poirot novel, Tim Allerton's mother is overjoyed to hear of the union however, in the movie, Euphemia doesn't approve of the relationship and thinks Bouc will go down a road of misery with her. Bouc heralds Poirot as the greatest detective of all time and provides him with a rundown of all the guests as well.Īs Death on the Nile progresses, Bouc is shown to be in love with Rosalie Otterbourne (Letitia Wright), the daughter of Salome Otterbourne (Sophie Okonedo). Since then, he has spent his days with his mother Euphemia (Annette Bening), visiting different places and helping her with her art.
After the events of Murder on the Orient Express, Bouc explains that his uncle removed him from the train because he didn't help much to solve the murder.

While his role in Kenneth Branagh's Murder on the Orient Express remains mostly identical to the novel, Bouc is re-introduced as one of the guests invited to the marriage celebration of Simon and Linnet Doyle (Armie Hammer and Gal Gadot) in Death on the Nile.
