Get ready for a masterclass in acting, led by Daniel Craig. The first teaser for Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery not only promises a brilliant mystery but also a showcase of incredible performances from its star-studded ensemble cast.
At the center is Craig’s beloved portrayal of Benoit Blanc, who returns with a new look and a new, challenging case: the “impossible” murder of a priest (Josh Brolin). But surrounding him is a cast of acting royalty, including Glenn Close, Kerry Washington, Mila Kunis, and Jeremy Renner, all of whom are set to deliver powerful, nuanced performances.
The teaser hints at the dramatic confrontations and subtle deceptions that will allow these actors to shine. The film is set to be a character-driven piece, where the mystery is solved not just through clues, but through the study of human behavior as portrayed by some of the best in the business.
Following its premiere at TIFF, this acting showcase is heading for a global stage. Wake Up Dead Man will be in select theaters from November 26th before its worldwide streaming debut on Netflix on December 12th.
