Netflix has unveiled the release date and a teaser trailer for 'Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery.'

Written and directed by franchise creator Rian Johnson ('American Fiction,' 'Star Wars: Episode VIII – The Last Jedi'), 'Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery' will star Kerry Washington and Josh Brolin alongside Craig. The cast also includes Cailee Spaeny, Josh O'Connor, Mila Kunis, Andrew Scott, Glenn Close, Jeremy Renner, Thomas Haden Church, Daryl McCormack, Annie Hamilton, Kerry Frances and Marcus Edward Bond. Brolin and O'Connor will both play priests, with Kunis portraying a police chief known as G. Scott. Johnson, Brolin, Renner, Spaeny, Washington, McCormack and Kunis were on hand at Netflix's Tudum live event on Saturday to preview the film. Glenn Close appeared on video saying she was 'stuck in traffic.' Finally Craig appeared onstage as well, sporting blue-tinted shades. 'Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery' is produced by Johnson and producer Ram Bergman's production company T-Street. Netflix will handle distribution for the film as part of the streamer's two-sequel deal with Johnson. The threequel will likely up the ante even more, after the 'Glass Onion' was described by Variety's chief film critic Owen Gleiberman as a 'bigger, showier, even more elaborately multi-faceted shell-game mystery' than the original 'Knives Out,' writing 'Craig has figured out how to let his wry performance sneak up on you all over again, and the suspects hover in a tasty zone between toxic and sympathetic…It thoroughly delivers, but next time the knives should cut deeper.'
