After previously announcing the return of Daniel Craig, and the addition of newcomers Josh O'Connor and Cailee Spaeny, we have a new name joining the cast of the third "Knives Out" movie.
Andrew Scott ("Ripley", "Fleabag") has signed on to join the epic ensemble cast of the new installment titled "Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery". Craig will reprise his role as quirky sleuth, Benoit Blanc, and although plot details are being kept under wraps, the film has been described as Blanc's most dangerous case yet.
Franchise filmmaker Rian Johnson is writing and directing the third "Knives Out" installment. He's also producing with his T-Street partner Ram Bergman, who worked on the first two films.
"Wake Up Dead Man" is expected to soon go into production and will be released in 2025. No word on whether it's going to be a Netflix exclusive like "Glass Onion", or a theatrical release like the first film. Johnson wrote the following on social media:
"I love everything about whodunits, 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."
