November 21, 2025 by Amie Cranswick

Ahead of its debut on the streaming service next month, Netflix has shared a batch of character posters for Rian Johnson’s Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery which put the spotlight on the returning Daniel Craig alongside new additions Josh O’Connor, Josh Brolin, Glenn Close, Mila Kunis, Kerry Washington, Jeremy Renner, Andrew Scott, Daryl McCormack, Cailee Spaeny, and Thomas Haden Church; take a look here…

Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig) returns for his most dangerous case yet in the third and darkest chapter of Rian Johnson’s murder mystery opus. When young priest Jud Duplenticy (Josh O’Connor) is sent to assist charismatic firebrand Monsignor Jefferson Wicks (Josh Brolin), it’s clear that all is not well in the pews. Wicks’s modest-but-devoted flock includes devout church lady Martha Delacroix (Glenn Close), circumspect groundskeeper Samson Holt (Thomas Haden Church), tightly-wound lawyer Vera Draven, Esq. (Kerry Washington), aspiring politician Cy Draven (Daryl McCormack), town doctor Nat Sharp (Jeremy Renner), best-selling author Lee Ross (Andrew Scott), and concert cellist Simone Vivane (Cailee Spaeny). After a sudden and seemingly impossible murder rocks the town, the lack of an obvious suspect prompts local police chief Geraldine Scott (Mila Kunis) to join forces with renowned detective Benoit Blanc to unravel a mystery that defies all logic.

Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery arrives on Netflix on December 12th.
