Rian Johnson Reveals First Image Of Daniel Craig As Detective Benoit Blanc On Set Of ‘Wake Up Dead Man’


Filming is underway on the starry movie featuring Craig, Josh O’Connor, Cailee Spaeny, Andrew Scott, Kerry Washington, Jeremy Renner and Mila Kunis.

The starry threequel from writer-director Johnson will see Daniel Craig return as Southern detective Benoit Blanc, alongside all all-star cast including Josh O’Connor, Cailee Spaeny, Andrew Scott, Kerry Washington, Jeremy Renner, Mila Kunis, Daryl McCormack and Josh Brolin. The series launched with Johnson’s 2019 whodunit of the same name, starring Craig, Chris Evans, Ana de Armas, Jamie Lee Curtis, Christopher Plummer and more, which grossed over $310 million worldwide. Following the popularity of the first film, which landed an Oscar nomination for its screenplay, Netflix acquired the rights to produce two sequels for $450 million — the first of which, Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, was released in 2022.
