Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery (2025)

Matthew McConaughey as a rival detective but he’s doing a British accent.

And that’s a good thing.

I think one of these Knives Out sequels, due to their fun nature, would be the perfect venue for a bit of stunt casting and maybe get Pierce Brosnan involved? A rival detective, a murder victim, or replacing Hugh Grant as, well, you know.

I liked the first one, didn't care for the second one, but would definitely check out a third entry.

[Cremildo]

This will reportedly begin filming later this year.

I'm very curious if RJ will keep all these staples of the last two movies in the next one.

At least one

• James Bond actor (besides Craig)
• Star Wars actor (besides Craig)
• Blade Runner actor
• Uncut Gems actor
• MCU actor
• Hamilton reference

Could add Noah Segan, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and a rock song title reference to the list but those seem inevitable.

I hope Glass Onion comes to Blu-Ray.

[Mr. Chaverria]

I'm game for more.

[levcore]

Still haven't seen the first one.

Deuxmoi isn't 100% reliable but a few weeks ago they had a submission saying this will be filming in London this fall and mentioned a couple names allegedly being eyed for it alongside DC

I honestly was fine with just Knives Out, but Glass Onion was really fun, so at this point, I'm down for as many as Johnson and Craig wants to do.

I loved Knives Out, and was underwhelmed by Glass Onion.

Can't say I'm really hyped for part three.

So Rian was listening to U2 during writing for this one?

I also didn't enjoy Glass Onion at the same level as Knives Out, but I'll gladly watch any Benoit Blanc mystery Rian Johnson churns out. It ain't hurtin' anyone.

I found Glass Onion disappointing. Have only watched it once. Hope the next one's better.

[TheBondFan]

I don't like this title

[Bond84]

When can they finally drop the Knives Out subtitle?

A great song from one of my favorite U2 albums. I enjoyed Knives Out, haven't seen Glass Onion yet, but I'm excited for this movie.
