Wake Up Dead Man Teaser
The official @KnivesOut social media accounts shared a preview of Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, a 12-second video of a church on a dreary night, the bells tolling ominously in the background.

What Will Happen in Wake Up Dead Man?
As usual with a Rian Johnson movie, the mystery is being maintained, with the only official synopsis out there being:
Benoit Blanc returns for his most dangerous case yet. Sequel to 'Glass Onion (2022)'.
(as per IMDb)
What we know from previous films is that they are led by an ensemble cast and traditionally follow a "whodunnit"structure. We can also expect plenty of twists and turns.
Wake Up Dead Man Release Date
Netflix has unveiled the release date for Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery. The film will land on the streaming platform on December 12, 2025.
Both Knives Out and Glass Onion premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival. While that doesn't mean Wake Up Dead Man will follow suit, it suggests that is a possibility.
