There’s a killer sitting in the pews, and a chilling silence has fallen. The first teaser for Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery creates a tense, atmospheric mystery set within a church where a priest has been murdered, and everyone in the congregation is a suspect.
Daniel Craig’s Benoit Blanc must break this silence to find the truth behind the “impossible” murder of a clergyman played by Josh Brolin. The teaser is heavy on suspense, promising a story where unspoken secrets and hidden sins are the deadliest weapons.
The pews are filled with a star-studded cast, including Glenn Close, Kerry Washington, and Mila Kunis, each of whom could be hiding a killer’s heart behind a pious facade. Blanc, with his new longer hair and formal suit, appears as a figure ready to confront this silent conspiracy.
Following its debut at the Toronto International Film Festival, the film is now set for a global release. Wake Up Dead Man will bring its chilling mystery to select theaters on November 26th before its worldwide streaming launch on Netflix on December 12th.
