Wake Up Dead Man: Knives Out 3 Wraps Filming

As a seasoned gamer and avid movie enthusiast, I can’t help but feel a thrill of anticipation as I delve into the latest installment of the Knives Out franchise – Wake Up Dead Man. My love for whodunnits has been ignited ever since I first played the classic adventure game, Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened, back in the day.


In just two swift months of shooting, the third installment of Netflix’s Knives Out series has completed its main photography. On Saturday, filmmaker Rian Johnson announced that filming for Wake Up Dead Man is now complete, thereby moving the project into post-production to ready it for its scheduled release date next year. Filming on the movie began on June 10th.

Wrapping up Wake Up Dead Man! It went by quickly! An outstanding team, a fantastic cast – this production was truly unique and exciting. Can’t wait to edit it all together, he tweeted on Saturday afternoon.

Similar to previous installments in the Knives Out series, details about the storyline of Wake Up Dead Man remain scarce, but it is confirmed as a murder mystery. The film boasts an impressive ensemble cast that includes Daniel Craig’s Benoit Blanc alongside notable names such as Josh Brolin, Mila Kunis, and Thomas Haden Church, among others.

Johnson expressed his enthusiasm for the mystery genre, particularly its versatility, when discussing the upcoming “Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery”. He mentioned that the tone of whodunnits can vary greatly, from Carr to Christie, and he relishes the opportunity to traverse this range while creating Benoit Blanc films.
