Rian Johnson, the director of the franchise, dropped a photo on social media commemorating the first day of shooting for “Wake Up Dead Man”, the third film in his “Knives Out” series, due in 2025. The first look image shows Daniel Craig dressed up as the quirky Southern detective Benoit Blanc, wearing a three-piece suit and holding a hat.
There's no mystery as to why Knives Out deserves a sequel. The suspenseful whodunit's breakthrough at the box office in 2019, gave director Rian Johnson and star Daniel Craig, a good reason to return for Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery. Johnson received a 2020 Oscar nomination for best original screenplay for the first Knives Out, which had the potential to be an eccentric curiosity. It sparked a slight revival in the genre while subtly parodying the traditional whodunit.
