Brace Yourself for an Unsolvable Mystery!
Daniel Craig is once again donning his detective hat in the gripping teaser for Netflix's upcoming thriller, 'Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery.' Directed by the brilliant Rian Johnson, this is the third installment in the wildly popular Knives Out series.
Release Dates That Will Keep You on the Edge of Your Seat!
Mark your calendars! This much-anticipated film hits select theaters on November 26 before streaming on Netflix starting December 12. The all-star cast includes Josh O’Connor, Glenn Close, Josh Brolin, Mila Kunis, Jeremy Renner, Kerry Washington, Andrew Scott, Cailee Spaeny, Daryl McCormack, and Thomas Haden Church.
A Chilling Premise: The Impossible Murder!
In 'Wake Up Dead Man,' Craig reprises his role as the astute detective Benoit Blanc, tasked with unraveling what could be his most perilous case to date. The trailer teases an enigmatic death of a charming priest, which Craig's character describes as a "classic, impossible crime." He explains, "To understand this case, you need to look at the myth that’s being constructed… a man walks into a sealed concrete box and, moments later, is found dead. How is that even possible?"
Meet the Cast and Characters!
The film features a fascinating array of characters, including the young priest Jud Duplenticy (O’Connor), who aids the charismatic Monsignor Jefferson Wicks (Brolin). But things are far from peaceful in the church as the local pastor's congregation—comprised of a devout church lady (Close), a cagey groundskeeper (Church), a high-strung lawyer (Washington), and others—finds themselves embroiled in a shocking murder investigation. With no obvious suspect, local police chief Geraldine Scott (Mila Kunis) partners with Detective Blanc to crack this impossible case.
A Franchise That Keeps Thrilling!
The excitement surrounding the Knives Out franchise began with the original film released by Lionsgate in 2019, followed by 'Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery' in late 2022 after Netflix acquired the rights for two sequels.
Early Praise: A Touching Performance!
In early reviews, film critic David Rooney from The Hollywood Reporter has already praised the film's cast, highlighting O'Connor's compelling portrayal of a former boxer turned priest who becomes entangled in the murder mystery.
