About Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery
When young priest Jud Duplenticy is sent to assist charismatic firebrand Monsignor Jefferson Wicks, it’s clear that all is not well in the pews. After a sudden and seemingly impossible murder rocks the town, the lack of an obvious suspect prompts local police chief Geraldine Scott to join forces with renowned detective Benoit Blanc to unravel a mystery that defies all logic.
Directed by Rian Johnson, Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery leans on a strong ensemble — Daniel Craig, Josh O'Connor, Glenn Close — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about thriller titles of 2025.
