Prepare yourself for a thrilling weekend with the return of Benoit Blanc in Knives Out 3, also known as Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, set to debut on Netflix. This highly anticipated addition to the Knives Out series promises to captivate audiences with its unique blend of intrigue and humor.

Helmed by the acclaimed Rian Johnson, who both writes and directs, the film showcases Daniel Craig reprising his role as the charming yet astute Southern detective. With a flawless record of solving even the most baffling cases, Benoit Blanc faces his toughest challenge yet—a seemingly unsolvable crime at the heart of Wake Up Dead Man. Could this be the case that finally stumps him?

While the movie boasts a stellar ensemble cast, it’s Josh O’Connor who shines as the central figure. He portrays Rev. Jud Duplenticy, a well-meaning and inexperienced priest assigned to a quaint town under the guidance of an unconventional head priest, played by Josh Brolin. When a mysterious death shakes the community, Benoit Blanc teams up with the earnest Rev. Jud to unravel the enigma.

The film features an impressive lineup of talent, including Glenn Close, Mila Kunis, Jeremy Renner, Kerry Washington, Andrew Scott, Cailee Spaeny, Daryl McCormack, and Thomas Haden Church. Unlike its predecessors, Wake Up Dead Man delves into more philosophical themes, offering a fresh take on the murder mystery genre.
