An Honest Trailer for Wake Up Dead Man

They made sure to append the title of Wake Up Dead Man with A Knives Out Mystery in its marketing materials so that the fans of the previous two films would at least hear about it. The previous two were Knives Out in 2019 and Glass Onion in 2022. The third installment assures us that Daniel Craig has landed a steady job after leaving the 007 movies. Here he reprises his role as detective Benoit Blanc solving a mystery by talking his way through it, just like the classic whodunits we've seen so many times. 

It's not really a spoiler to reveal that Blanc solves the murder mystery. That's pretty much a given. But beware that this Honest Trailer reveals whodunit right away, before they even introduce the many suspects (the Wikipedia plot summary does, too). If you are determined to see the movie without knowing who the killer is, then rest assured that Screen Junkies enjoyed Wake Up Dead Man, although they do poke fun at its over-the-top characterizations. So expect another Knives Out mystery in 2028.
