Knives Out 3 Trailer Highlights ‘Impossible’ Mystery in Wake Up Dead Man
Netflix has released a brand new trailer for Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, previewing the upcoming third film in the series and an “impossible” crime that Benoit Blanc will have to solve. It is set to release in theaters on November 26, 2025, and then later on Netflix on December 12, 2025.
“Benoit Blanc returns for his most dangerous case yet in the third and darkest chapter of Rian Johnson’s murder mystery opus,” reads the film’s official synopsis. “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. Wicks’s modest-but-devoted flock includes devout church lady Martha Delacroix, circumspect groundskeeper Samson Holt, tightly-wound lawyer Vera Draven, aspiring politician Cy Draven, town doctor Nat Sharp, best-selling author Lee Ross, and concert cellist Simone Vivane. 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.”
