About the Knives Out Universe
The Knives Out series launched in 2019 with a murder mystery centered around the death of a wealthy crime novelist. The film was a hit, blending Agatha Christie-inspired suspense with biting social commentary. Its sequel, Glass Onion, took the action to a Greek island, stirring up a debate over its social satire — but winning over plenty of fans in the process.

Now, Wake Up Dead Man looks to take things in an even more intriguing direction — with a deliciously gothic atmosphere and a promise of yet another captivating whodunnit. And if the trailer is any indication, Daniel Craig and company are about to give us another thrilling chapter in this endlessly entertaining franchise.
