A new mystery requires a new look. The official teaser for Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery is here, and it not only introduces a shocking new crime for Benoit Blanc to solve but also a noticeable change in the detective’s appearance. Daniel Craig returns to the role with longer hair and a sharp new wardrobe.
The central case is a bold one: a Catholic priest (Josh Brolin) is murdered in front of his congregation during Mass. Benoit Blanc is brought in to solve this “impossible” puzzle, navigating a labyrinth of secrets and potential culprits. The teaser trailer sets an intriguing and dramatic tone, promising a must-see event for fans of the genre.
Joining Craig is an impressive lineup of actors, including Glenn Close, Kerry Washington, Mila Kunis, Jeremy Renner, and Andrew Scott, ensuring a film rich with talent. The visual transformation of Blanc suggests a fresh take on the character, perhaps hinting at a more seasoned or serious detective than we’ve seen before.
After its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 6th, the film is now on its way to a global audience. Wake Up Dead Man will receive a limited theatrical run from November 26th before it becomes available to stream exclusively on Netflix starting December 12th.
