Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, the third installment in Rian Johnson’s Knives Out film series for Netflix, will premiere on December 12 on the platform, a newly released teaser trailer reveals. The trailer was unveiled at Netflix’s Tudum event held Saturday in Los Angeles, and shows the return of Daniel Craig’s Southern detective Benoit Blanc. Joining him in the cast are Josh O’Connor, Glenn Close, Andrew Scott, Mila Kunis, Jeremy Renner, Kerry Washington, and Cailee Spaeny. The film comes three years after the previous film in the franchise, Glass Onion, and six years after the original Knives Out film took the world by storm. It is unclear whether Wake Up Dead Man will be the last film in the series. While Netflix originally only bought the rights to two sequels, both Johnson and Craig have previously said they would continue producing Knives Out films as long as both were involved.
