Knives Out 3 Wraps Filming, Confirms Director Rian Johnson

Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery has finished filming.

The news comes from writer/director Rian Johnson, who celebrated wrapping up the shoot with a tweet embedded below.

“Aaaand that’s a wrap on Wake Up Dead Man ,” writes Johnson, who directed the previous films in the series. “Went so fast! Best crew, incredible cast, this was a really special shoot and I cannot wait to put it together.”

Johnson uploaded a black and white photo alongside the post, showing off a sign in a graveyard reading ‘Please be mindful of graves.’

It’s not clear whether that’s part of the plot, or if it’s genuine instruction to the crew who were apparently filming in an actual graveyard. More important news, however: Knives Out 3 fans react to Daniel Craig’s new look as Benoit Blanc .

Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery is exclusively premiering on Netflix sometime in 2025. Daniel Craig is back as eccentric detective Benoit Blanc, with a whole new cast of memorable murder suspects to investigate. Check them out below.
