Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery
Digest more
A Knives Out Mystery,” starring Daniel Craig, is new on Netflix on Friday. Is Johnson planning on any more cases for Craig’s private detective, Benoit Blanc?
A Knives Out Mystery has finally premiered on the 2025 movie schedule and is now available with a Netflix subscription, and with it, fans of the murder mystery genre have a new adventure to go on with Benoit Blanc.
Now that the movie's available to stream on Netflix (and that I've managed to squeeze in a second big-screen viewing), I'm doubling down on my gut feeling: "Wake Up Dead Man" is, in my opinion, the best "Knives Out" movie yet, and I'd love for Johnson and Daniel Craig to keep serving up fresh Benoit Blanc cases for as long as they want.
The new Knives Out isn’t just a return to form. It’s a miraculous self-reinvention.
