(Photo by Chelsea Guglielmino\/Getty Images)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Rian Johnson\u2019s &#8216;whodunnit&#8217; franchise is set to serve up its third instalment with the production of <em>Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery<\/em>. Following the success of its first iteration, <em>Knives Out,<\/em> in 2019 and its sequel, <em>The Glass Onion<\/em>, in 2022, the upcoming film promises a thrilling world of secrets and betrayal.<\/p>\n<p>Other than its title, which is taken from the U2 song of the same name, much of the details remain a mystery. However, Johnson has confirmed some tidbits, sharing a few nuggets of information in a 45-second teaser.<\/p>\n<p>With little given away, the <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/rianjohnson\/status\/1794005920898502741\" target=\"_blank\">clip<\/a> simply confirmed the film&#8217;s name and release year and that <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/articles\/daniel-craig-lets-loose-in-belvedere-vodka-campaign\/\">Daniel Craig<\/a> would be returning as Benoit Blanc, the Southern detective with a cunning eye and a flair for the dramatic.<\/p>\n<p>For everything else we know about the film, scroll on.<\/p>\n<h2>What is &#8216;Wake Up Dead Man&#8217; about?<\/h2>\n<p>Though there isn&#8217;t too much known about the upcoming project, it&#8217;s safe to say that the film will follow the plot formula of its two predecessors.<\/p>\n<p>If we were to guess, there will be a murder afoot, and Detective Benoit Blanc will be on the premises or called in to help solve the crime with an eclectic list of suspects. And just like both <em>Knives Out<\/em> and <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/articles\/kate-hudson-goldie-hawn-mother-daughter-glass-onion-a-knives-out-mystery-red-carpet\/\"><em>The Glass Onion<\/em><\/a>, it won&#8217;t be who you think, and plenty of twists and turns will unfold as we learn more about the characters.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_231771\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-231771\" style=\"width: 4000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-231771\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/chris-evans-knives-out-sweater.jpeg\" alt=\"knives out 3\" width=\"4000\" height=\"2666\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-231771\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Chris Evans in &#8216;Knives Out&#8217;<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Who is in &#8216;Wake Up Dead Man&#8217;?<\/h2>\n<p>Any whodunnit is only as good as the zany ensemble cast that make up its killer lineup.
