Netflix Reveals Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery Sneak Peek for December

Netflix has just dropped a bombshell for all the Knives Out fans out there! Rian Johnson’s new movie, Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, is set to hit our screens this December! Not only did Netflix confirm the release date of December 12th, but they also treated us to a sneak peek teaser trailer during their TUDUM event—talk about suspense!

The trailer gives us a taste of what’s to come in this star-studded murder mystery. With familiar faces like Daniel Craig reprising his role as Benoit Blanc, along with Glenn Close, Mila Kunis, Josh Brolin, and more, the Southern Gothic vibes are strong in this one. As Blanc himself puts it, “The impossible crime…for a man of reason, this is the Holy Grail.” Intriguing, right?

But don’t let the eerie atmosphere fool you—this isn’t your typical supernatural whodunit. Amidst the suspects and victims revealed in the trailer, Josh O’Connor’s Reverend Jud Duplenticy seems to have some dark secrets lurking beneath his holy facade. As Blanc uncovers, what may appear as a miracle to some is nothing more than a cleverly disguised murder.

So mark your calendars for December 12th and get ready to unravel the mystery alongside Benoit Blanc in Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery. This promises to be Netflix’s biggest murder mystery event of 2025, so you won’t want to miss it!
