Amid the dark mystery, the first teaser for Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery delivers a heavy dose of old Hollywood glamour. The combination of a star-studded cast, elegant costumes, and a dramatic, high-stakes plot harkens back to the golden age of cinema.
Leading the charge is Daniel Craig as Benoit Blanc, whose new three-piece suit and longer hair give him the air of a classic film noir detective. He is surrounded by screen legends and modern stars like Glenn Close, Kerry Washington, and Mila Kunis, creating an ensemble with timeless appeal.
The crime itself—the murder of a priest (Josh Brolin) in a grand church—provides a suitably dramatic and atmospheric setting for this glamorous affair. The teaser promises a film that is not only a clever mystery but also a visually stunning piece of cinema.
After its premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, this glamorous mystery is heading for a worldwide audience. Wake Up Dead Man will grace the silver screen in select theaters from November 26th before streaming on Netflix on December 12th.
