'Knives Out' Director Rian Johnson Confirms Third Movie 'Wake Up Dead Man' With Daniel Craig


Benoit Blanc, portrayed by Daniel Craig, is back on the case in 'Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery.'

The third installment of Netflix's whodunit franchise, Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, is set to debut in 2025 with Daniel Craig returning as Benoit Blanc in his most dangerous case yet. Blanc, a suave Southern investigator, will be unraveling a brand-new murder case in an as-yet-undisclosed setting, surrounded by a new colorful cast of suspects. Last January, Johnson teased whether fans could expect to see Hugh Grant return as Craig's love interest in another Knives Out movie and if he's been recruiting any celebrities for the series.
