Rebecca Rubin Senior Film and Media Reporter Andrew Scott has joined the sprawling cast of “Knives Out 3.” The “Ripley” and “Fleabag” actor will star in the whodunit — titled “Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery” — alongside the previously announced “Challengers” breakout Josh O’Connor and Cailee Spaeny of “Priscilla” fame.
And of course, Daniel Craig will reprise his role as the quirky sleuth at the center of it all, Benoit Blanc. Rian Johnson is writing and directing the third “Knives Out” installment.
He’s also producing with his T-Street partner Ram Bergman, who worked on the first two films. “Wake Up Dead Man” is expected to soon go into production and is slated to release in 2025.
Plot details have yet to be revealed, but Johnson and Craig have teased that it is Blanc’s “most dangerous case yet.” “I love everything about whodunits, but one of the things I love most is how malleable the genre is,” Johnson wrote on social media before announcing the threequel’s title. “There’s a whole tonal spectrum from Carr to Christie, and getting to explore that range is one of the most exciting things about making Benoit Blanc movies.” Lionsgate released the original 2019 film, which impressively grossed $312 million against a $40 million budget.
