The Big Bang Theory star Kaley Cuoco was devastated upon losing her role to Kate Hudson in Netflix’s Knives Out sequel starring Daniel Craig. Renowned for her role as Penny and her Emmy-nominated performance in The Flight Attendant, the actress was deeply disheartened to lose a coveted role alongside the former James Bond star in the crime mystery.

“Mayor of Kingstown” star and former “Avengers” member Jeremy Renner was as thrown and surprised by the announcement of Robert Downey Jr. and the Russo Brothers’ return to the MCU as everyone else seemed to be.
Chatting with Us Weekly in regards to the news, when asked whether collaborator and friend Downey clued him into the announcement, Renner said, “No! I had no idea. The son of a bitch didn’t say anything to me. We’re good friends. There’s the Avengers family chat. The original six. He said not a peep. I got online and started blowing up his phone like, ‘What’s going on? You’ve been hiding this from us all along?’ That’s exciting news. I’m really, really excited about it.”
Going further, Renner went on to seemingly acknowledge the pivot Marvel was in need of making and how relying on key players is always a smart move.

After its Season 2 renewal in February 2023, Rian Johnson’s and Natasha Lyonne’s Poker Face the case-of-the-week mystery series is back in production for its next installment.
Season 1 of the Peacock show featured 10 episodes of Lyonne’s Charlie Cale, a Vegas casino worker whose keen sense of honesty leads to a Columbo-style show and reverse detective format. Johnson, who also has Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery in the works with a stacked cast, describes the show as a “howcatchem” versus a “whodunit” which is the format of the Knives Outand Glass Onion films.

Sound the Steven Spielberg movie news klaxon! Just last month we brought you the exciting news that in-demand Oppenheimer and The Fall Guy star Emily Blunt is in talks to lead the legendary American filmmaker's mysterious new UFO movie, currently slated for release in May 2026. And now we're getting word of another big British name who could be boarding the project. According to the latest issue of Production Weekly, Challengers' Josh O'Connor may yet be the second hand in Spielberg's very vaguely described 'two-hander', though it is important to note at this time that Universal have yet to confirm any major casting news on the hotly anticipated project.
Precious little is known about what Spielberg is cooking up for his big return to blockbuster territory so far, but we have already learned that the filmmaker is reteaming with his Jurassic Park scribe David Koepp for this one, whilst fellow...

As much as paying tribute to the films before was part of “Alien: Romulus” Director Fede Álvarez’s intent, he noted how he wanted the film to stand apart on its own and “do its own thing,” saying how he wanted to “modernize” the series for contemporary audiences.
“We kept a lot of the perfect elements about those original movies untouched because we didn’t need to improve them, but then we had a lot of new stuff. That’s what makes it modern and new,” he said. Hopefully, it takes its place among the other ones, and for me, it’s never a bad time in theatres when you’re watching an ‘Alien’ movie. It was such a joyous experience watching it for the first time.”
However, he found a way to make his mark as a director by opting for a much younger cast than the previous films before them,...

Thanks to stellar performances in “Challengers” and “La Chimera,” British actor Josh O’Connor is on the cusp of a Hollywood breakout. His casting in Rian Johnson‘s “Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery” may have initiated that process, but the actor’s lastest one cements it. Empire reports that O’Connor will star opposite Emily Blunt in Steven Spielberg‘s upcoming UFO blockbuster.

Chugga-Chugga, Chugga-Chugga, Choo-choo! "What's that noise?" we hear you cry. Why, it's the sound of the Brenaissance hype train continuing to gather speed, of course. Yes folks, after learning just last week that Andrew Scott is set to lead Anthony Maras' (Hotel Mumbai) upcoming WWII movie Pressure, Deadline has now confirmed that resurgent The Whale star Brendan Fraser has also joined the line-up for the true-story based D-Day thriller.
Fraser is set to play Supreme Allied Commander Dwight D. Eisenhower in Maras' film, which is set to see in-demand All Of Us Strangers and Ripley star Scott play unsung war hero Group Captain James Stagg. As the meteorologist who persuaded Eisenhower to change the date of the Normandy Landings, Stagg's elemental acuity under immense pressure also changed the course of the war for the Allied Forces. It'll be interesting then to see Fraser and Scott, two intensely magnetic screen presences...

Andrew Scott is in a career renaissance right now thanks to “All Of Us Strangers“ and “Ripley,” and it looks like it’ll continue in 2025 thanks to the actor’s casting in “Wake Up Dead Man,” the next “Knives Out” mystery. But it’s another upcoming project that may put Scott into next year’s Golden Globe/Oscars hunt.

Another day, another bit of buzzy casting news for a hotly anticipated murder mystery project! Now that cameras are rolling on Rian Johnson's starry Knives Out threequel Wake Up Dead Man and Netflix's upcoming Richard Osman adaptation The Thursday Murder Club has just about filled its own stacked cast to bursting, Johnson's other ace sleuthing series — Natasha Lyonne starring anthology offering Poker Face — is enjoying its own casting spree. Per Deadline's reporting, the first wave of guest stars for the show's currently in production second series includes Giancarlo Esposito (Captain America: Brave New World), Kumail Nanjiani (The Big Sick), Katie Holmes (Logan Lucky), and Gaby Hoffmann (Eric).

Netflix has released the trailer for its upcoming horror thriller “The Deliverance,” starring Andra Day, Glenn Close, Caleb McLaughlin, Mo’Nique and Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor. The film follows a family living in Indiana who are plagued by supernatural and demonic occurrences that lead them and their community to believe their house is a portal to hell.
“The Deliverance” marks the second collaboration between director Lee Daniels and Day, with their first being the 2021 drama “The United States vs. Billie Holiday.” Day went on to be nominated for best performance by an actress in a leading role at the 2021 Academy Awards for her portrayal of the iconic jazz singer.
It was recently announced that Glenn Close will appear alongside Daniel Craig in Rian Johnson’s third “Knives Out” installment “Wake Up Dead Man.” Her other upcoming projects include “Brothers,” “Back in Action,” “Encore,” “The Summer Book” and a musical reimagining of the 1950 classic...

Variety has reported that Halle Berry is no longer attached to All’s Fair, the Ryan Murphy legal series set to star Glenn Close and Kim Kardashian. The reason is said to be a scheduling conflict, but the exit still seems surprising as it arrives exactly a week after it was first reported that Berry would be joining the series. The role will be recast, so we should hear about Berry’s replacement in the near future.

Halle Berry and Glenn Close are heading back to the small screen. They’re set to join the cast of All’s Fair, an upcoming legal drama series from Ryan Murphy and 20th Television.

The Murder Mysterenaissance just keeps getting better and better! As production ramps up Rian Johnson's star-filled Knives Out threequel Wake Up Dead Man, Netflix's other big upcoming whodunit, Chris Columbus' adaptation of Richard Osman's The Thursday Murder Club, is continuing to add to its own stacked ensemble. Per Deadline's reporting, Withnail & I star Richard E. Grant and Lucifer's Tom Ellis lead the latest round of additions to the buzzy Brit-led crime caper.
Hailing from writer-director Columbus and backed by Steven Spielberg's Amblin Entertainment, there's some serious creative firepower behind Netflix's take on Osman's tale of crime-solving pensioners caught up in a real high-stakes murder mystery. As has already been confirmed, The Thursday Murder Club's central quartet consists of Helen Mirren's ex-spy Elizabeth, Pierce Brosnan's former union man Ron, Ben Kingsley's retired psychiatrist Ibrahim, and Celia Imrie's kindly former nurse Joyce.

Prime Video is not moving ahead with “Outer Range,” its sci-fi and neo-Western drama starring Josh Brolin. The drama premiered its second season in mid May.
The series came from Brian Watkins and was executive produced by Brolin, Charles Murray, Brad Pitt, Dede Gardner, Jeremy Kleiner, Ernest McNealey, Tony Krantz, Heather Rae and Jon Paré.
“Outer Range” focuses on Wyoming rancher Royal Abbott (Brolin), a man who is fighting for both his land and his family. After the arrival of a mysterious drifter by the name of Autumn (Imogen Poots), a black void appears in his pasture. As this mystery unfolds, the Abbott family also has to juggle the disappearance of their daughter-in-law Rebecca as well as a long-standing feud with a rival family trying to take over their land, the Tillersons.

On New Year’s Day, 2023, Jeremy Renner’s horrific fate was disguised under the almost angelic white layer of snow that covered a small town near Lake Tahoe, Nevada. In the early hours of the day, an accident involving a snow plow left the Oscar-winning actor with injuries no mortal could possibly survive and had the fans re-evaluating their definition of a real-life superhero.

Although he was crushed by a 14,330-lb snowcat and was informed about potentially losing functionality in both legs, Jeremy Renner’s sheer will brought him back from death’s door. His new-found purpose made him reach for the stars with no limit to his ambitions and no cap on his Hollywood career.

Jeremy Renner is reevaluating the kinds of roles he can take on after surviving a January 2023 snow-plow accident.
Renner revealed during the “Smartless” podcast that he was at first “terrified” to return to acting after the near-fatal crash. But he was back on set to film Season 3 of series “Mayor of Kingstown” just one year after first being hospitalized.
The MCU alum said he was “very terrified” to be back onscreen “because I’m to do, like, fucking fiction? I’m still trying to live in reality, I’m trying to live. So it was a hard line for me to cross.”
He continued, “It was a big stretch. It was very, very challenging for me mentally to get over that hump.”
Thankfully, Renner’s “Mayor of Kingstown” isn’t as demanding as say, portraying Jeffrey Dahmer, according to the actor.

Life is unpredictable, and any small or large incident can entirely derail a person’s path. True to this statement is Jeremy Renner, whose snowplow accident in January 1, 2023 profoundly altered the trajectory of his life. The actor suffered traumatic chest trauma and orthopedic injuries when his 14,000-pound Sno-Cat ran over him.

Despite the hardships, after various rehabilitation programs, the actor is on the road to fully restoring his health and fitness. And he’s making sure that his fans join him on this wonderful journey as well.
Jeremy Renner discusses the good things that came after his accident
Renner has always been a gym devotee, as seen by the six-pack abs he displayed in his role in Hawkeye. However, fitness has taken on a new meaning for the actor. He echoed the same attitude in an interview with Men’s Health for their most recent Gym and Fridge series.

The word “miracle” gets thrown around a lot. But it truly is miraculous to see the recovery of Jeremy Renner after being literally crushed by a snow plow just a year-and-a-half ago. Not only did he survive, but it seems as if he’s actually thriving—returning to work on “Mayor of Kingstown” Season 3 and an upcoming role in Rian Johnson’s “Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery.” However, according to Renner, there are some limits to his capabilities right now.

Following the snowplow accident, Jeremy Renner says that he doesn’t “have the energy” for ” challenging ” roles amid his continued recovery.
Renner suffered from blunt chest trauma in January 2023 after an accident with a snow plow that ran him over.
“I just don’t have the energy for it. I don’t have the fuel,” Renner said on the Smartless podcast, hosted by Will Arnett, Sean Hayes, and Jason Bateman. “I have so much fuel to put into this reality, this body, all this stuff. I can’t just go play make-believe right now. Because that takes a lot of time to get right here every day just so I can have a positive thought, so I can progress, so I can always keep growing.”
The Mayor of Kingstown star returned to acting to start filming Season 3 and acknowledged that he was “very terrified,” adding, “Because I’m to do,...

Though he has starred in various franchises, Jeremy Renner is known for his role as Hawkeye in the MCU. The actor had his Marvel debut with Thor and then became a core member of the Avengers. Renner made multiple appearances in various films and even headlined his own Disney Plus series Hawkeye.
The actor has been returning to the screen and the public after partly recovering from his snowplow accident. Renner previously opened up about his challenges as an actor and even mentioned how he was initially apprehensive about saying yes to Hawkeye as it was a long commitment.

Jeremy Renner admitted in a recent “Smartless” podcast interview that he doesn’t “have the energy” to take on more demanding roles as he continues his recovery from his near-fatal snow plow accident.
“I just don’t have the energy for it. I don’t have the fuel,” Renner said. “I have so much fuel to put into this reality, this body, all this stuff. I can’t just go play make-believe right now. Because that takes a lot of time to get right here every day just so I can have a positive thought, so I can progress, so I can always keep growing.”
In January 2023, Renner was hospitalized for blunt chest trauma and orthopedic injuries after his Sno-Cat, a large snow plow weighing more than 14,000 pounds, ran him over. He returned to the set of “Mayor of Kingstown” in January of this year to film the third season.

Jennifer Lawrence is reportedly starring in The Wives, a murder mystery that takes inspiration from a certain reality TV franchise. More on the story below.
Apple Original Films has acquired the rights to The Wives, a new murder mystery film that will reportedly star Jennifer Lawrence, as reported by Variety. Lawrence will also be producing as will A24 along with Apple Studios.
Michael Breslin and Patrick Foley, who are best known for writing Ratatouille: The TikTok Musical as well as their play Circle Jerk, will be penning the script. The project doesn’t currently have a director attached, but we’re sure that news will follow imminently.
Plot details are also currently under wraps, but we do know that the film will take inspiration from The Real Housewives reality TV franchise. Based on that, Lawrence will most likely be sipping on a lot of wine and feuding with fellow housewives in the film.

If you’re a screen actor right now, there are two murder-mystery ensembles you probably want to be a part of. On the one hand, you have Rian Johnson assembling a stellar cast for his next Knives Out movie, Wake Up Dead Man. And then there’s the adaptation of Richard Osman’s hit novel The Thursday Murder Club, coming from writer-director Chris Columbus with the might of Amblin behind it – and boasting, as its central quartet, Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan, Ben Kingsley, and Celia Imrie. Now, that cast has expanded with multiple new additions, since the film is expected to begin shooting before the end of June.
Added to the cast now are the likes of Doctor Who legend David Tennant, The Rise Of Skywalker’s Naomi Ackie, and Rogue One’s Daniel Mays, plus Jonathan Pryce and Henry Lloyd-Hughes. The five additions have been confirmed by Netflix, though...

The series of murder mysteries that began with the 2019 film Knives Out and continued with the 2022 film Glass Onion is set to keep on going with Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, which has writer/director Rian Johnson back at the helm. Johnson and his collaborators are being very secretive about this project right now, but there’s a lot of hype for it – so we figured this would be a good time to start assembling a list of Everything We Know About Wake Up Dead Man. Here we go:
Title
Johnson got the title Knives Out from a Radiohead song. When it came time to make the sequel Glass Onion, he got the title from a song by The Beatles. So it’s only fitting that the third film in the franchise have a song-inspired title as well. But while Radiohead and The Beatles were from England,...

Well, there goes Josh O’Connor’s dream of starring in a live-action “Ratatouille.”
After the “Challengers” and “Knives Out 3” star voiced his desire to bring Alfredo Linguini to life onscreen (“Ratatouille” is one of the few films that make O’Connor cry), Pixar’s Chief Creative Officer Pete Docter thwarted any chance of a live-action remake. And that’s not just for “Ratatouille,” but all of Pixar’s catalog.
For Pixar, live-action is a dish best served, well, never.
“This might bite me in the butt for saying it, but it sort of bothers me,” Docter told Time when asked about live-action remakes. (The question was teed up with the O’Connor-in-“Ratatouille” fan campaign.) “I like making movies that are original and unique to themselves. To remake it, it’s not very interesting to me personally.”
Plus, a live-action remake would require a CGI talking rat, which Docter...

Tom Hardy is most popularly known for committing to intense characters that are morally complex. The actor goes method in everything he does and dives deep into the skin of the character to embody them. Films like Bronson, Warrior, Locke, The Revenant, and The Dark Knight Rises display his brilliant transformative performances.

The latter had him star as Bane, whose towering physique and intimidating aura instill fear in the people of Gotham and even Batman. One might think that the actor is also intense in reality. However, Hardy is a total goofball and a sweetheart in real life and his Kids Interview with BBC1 proves it.

Today is day 1 of shooting on the next Benoit Blanc mystery ‘Wake Up Dead Man’ – see you on the other side. With this message, fans received their first look at Daniel Craig as Benoit Blanc in the upcoming Knives Out 3. The new image showcases a significant change: Craig’s character now sports long hair.

Ever since we first learned the title of Rian Johnson's next Knives Out mystery, Wake Up Dead Man, we've had a sneaking suspicion that Benoit Blanc's latest outing might be an altogether much darker affair than his last, 2022's sun soaked murder-mystery Glass Onion. And if our first look at Daniel Craig's southern sleuther in the upcoming threequel is anything to go by, then we may just be right. Taking to Twitter earlier today to commemorate his first day of shooting on the film, writer-director Johnson shared a brooding black-and-white shot of Craig's Blanc suited up, hair down, and holding onto a new hat. Check it out below;
It's certainly not giving Benoit Blanc in his stripy swimming costume living it up on a billionaire's private island now, is it? Sporting long hair, a dapper three-piece suit, and a decidedly forlorn expression, it looks like Blanc means business this third time around.

After a solid several centuries of non-stop detective stories being thrown at the public, you’d somewhat expect the genre to have exhausted itself. But crime mysteries still maintain their status as the go-to option for those willing to enjoy a story and make their brains work at the same time, and there’s no shortage of new original stories that defy the genre’s laws.
Knives Out Refreshed the Detective Genre
To this day, we remember when in 2019, Chris Evans said “knives out” and started kniving out everyone in the room as if it happened yesterday. But in all seriousness, five years ago, the detective genre wasn’t looking too hot — or at least, not nearly as hot as it does now. Then, Rian Johnson released Knives Out, and the tides turned.

Mila Kunis this week dropped jaws as a rare bikini photo of her went viral. The 40-year-old actress is known for being one of the most low-profile stars in Hollywood — with no social media and most photos showing her ducking the cameras in casual jeans or sweats, it's of little surprise that fans went wild. Promoting her upcoming Knives Out 3 movie, Mila stunned in a hot red bikini as she posed from a boat, with costar Daniel Craig also in the photo. The Daily Mail noted fans going "wild" for the Ukrainian-born actress' abs, although the compliments didn't stop there. One fan even likened Mila to a teenager.

The first photo of Daniel Craig as Benoit Blanc in Wake Up Dead Man has been revealed, showcasing the character’s new hairstyle.
Director Rian Johnson expressed his excitement diving back into the universe of Knives Out: “We’ve been very lucky with each of these movies to have gathered some of my favorite actors on the planet, and that’s absolutely the case here… They’re also all lovely folks who get along, which is the dinner party aspect of it. When you’re making an ensemble movie like this I think that’s key.”

Wake up, a new Daniel Craig haircut photo just dropped!
Rian Johnson marked the first day of filming on “Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery” by sharing a first look photo of star Daniel Craig as private detective Benoit Blanc. Blanc is sporting a longer, shaggier haircut than he ever has before. He looks a little like Charles Dance, don’t you think?

Benoit Blanc returns in his most dangerous case yet. Production has begun in London on Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, the third film featuring the celebrated, Southern-fried detective created by writer/director Rian Johnson and played by Daniel Craig. The new installment is produced by Johnson and producer Ram Bergman’s production company T-Street.
We first met Blanc in 2019’s Knives Out, when he was hired to investigate the death of bestselling author Harlan Thrombey (Christopher Plummer). In that film, Blanc teamed up with nurse Marta Cabrera (Ana de Armas) to uncover the truth in a twisted case filled with angry relatives, red herrings, and fabulous knitwear.
Blanc’s skills were called upon once more in Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, when he headed to Greece to peel back the layers of intrigue surrounding tech billionaire Miles Bron (Edward Norton) and an eclectic group of disruptors.

Daniel Craig's Benoit Blanc is looking dapper as hell in this new look at "Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery," Rian Johnson's latest murder mystery that continues the adventures of the private detective after "Knives Out" and "Glass Onion." The topline instant takeaway is obviously that Blanc has much longer hair than he's had in the previous two films, and that new look could potentially signal a new attitude or maybe even a whole new worldview for this character. Could a shaggier-haired Blanc be a bit more laid back and bohemian this time around? Perhaps he's been hanging out with his pal Derol from "Glass Onion" in between movies and taken some life lessons from the amiable slacker.

It’s day one of filming on Rian Johnson’s next Knives Out mystery, Wake Up Dead Man, and the filmmaker has shared a photo of Daniel Craig to prove it.
Daniel Craig is both a good actor and a good wearer of suits. As a reminder, Rian Johnson has shared a photo from the set of Wake Up Dead Man, showing Craig’s detective Benoit Blanc looking dapper in his latest bit of tailoring.
It also looks as though Johnson’s latest Knives Out murder mystery will see Craig sport a rather different hairstyle: longer, cleanly parted, like a blonde Brett Anderson out of 1990s indie rock outfit, Suede.
The photo commemorates the first day of shooting on Wake Up Dead Man, which now features a huge ensemble cast that would put your typical Marvel film to shame. In here you’ll find (deep breath) Josh O’Connor, Cailee Spaeny,...

Writer/director Rian Johnson has taken to social media to let us all know that filming has officially begun on his new film Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery – which, as you can glean from the title, is indeed the latest installment in the series of murder mysteries that Johnson began with Knives Out in 2019 and continued with Glass Onion (pictured above) in 2022. At the heart of these films is private investigator Benoit Blanc, played by Daniel Craig – and Johnson went ahead and shared a black and white image of Craig on set and in costume, bringing Benoit Blanc back to life on the first day of filming Wake Up Dead Man:

Daniel Craig’s famed Southern detective Benoit Blanc has a new look in a first look still from Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, unveiled on Monday morning, which you can view below.
Depicting Craig with long hair, the black-and-white still was shared by filmmaker Rian Johnson to commemorate the start of production on the anticipated Netflix threequel.

When the original Knives Out movie was released by Lionsgate in 2019, the whodunnit starring Daniel Craig as the southern P.E. Benoit Blanc, was either doomed to fail or become a smashing success. The latter happened, as the ensemble cast full of big names made Knives Out one of the best films of the year, ending up with numerous accolades and nominations, with many going so far as to claim that it had revived the whodunnit genre. The sequel, Glass Onion, was also well-received, but more because of its political and social messages than for the plot, which was more or less feeble and unworthy of the original. But, what is important is that Glass Onion also featured an ensemble cast, and it seems that the upcoming third movie, Wake Up Dead Man, will also follow in these footsteps.
