Faithfully Yours is a Dutch thriller movie that follows two best friends who are engaged in an affair that soon turns into a terrifying murder mystery.

The new Netflix movie was originally released in December last year in the Netherlands and has now got a global release on the streaming service.

The synopsis for the Netflix movie is: "Best friends, Bodil and Isabel, attractive, successful, and seemingly happily married, once in a while go away together for the weekend to have secret affairs. 

“They use each other as alibis and always make sure they have their stories straight. They prepare credible plans and specific details so they’ll never contradict each other. 

"But when Isabel is murdered at a time and place where they were supposed to have been together, Bodil gets caught in her own web of lies.”

There are four major characters that the movie focuses on, and we have everything you need to know about them and the actors who play them.
