Rian Johnson’s hit Knives Out Universe expands with a third movie next year, and we’ve learned this morning it’s officially titled Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery.
Additionally, we’ve learned that Daniel Craig will be back as Benoit Blanc, the character he first played in Knives Out and then later sequel Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery.
Wake Up Dead Man is coming to Netflix in 2025. Rian Johnson is back to write and direct, and the film is said to unfold “Benoit Blanc’s most dangerous case yet.”
Rian Johnson tweets, “I love everything about whodunnits, but one of the things I love most is how malleable the genre is. There’s a whole tonal spectrum from Carr to Christie, and getting to explore that range is one of the most exciting things about making Benoit Blanc movies.
“We’re about to go into production on the 3rd one, and I’m very, very excited to share the title, which gives a little hint of where it’s going,” Johnson’s tweet this morning continues.
Watch the title reveal video for Wake Up Dead Man below and expect more soon.
Knives Out was a massive hit for Lionsgate in 2019, pulling in over $300 million worldwide at the box office. Glass Onion arrived in 2022, first in limited theaters and then on Netflix.
