US EditionWhat to Stream: 'Poker Face,' Blake Shelton, the spy thriller 'Black Bag' and Vince Vaughn
- Rian Johnson returns to direct the third installment in the Knives Out series, featuring Daniel Craig reprising his role as detective Benoit Blanc, with the film scheduled to debut on Netflix in the fall of 2025.
- Netflix acquired the Knives Out franchise after the 2019 original release by Lionsgate and the 2022 cinematic and streaming success of Glass Onion.
- Production finished in August 2024 near London, with a moody European setting replacing previous vibrant backdrops and a large, star-studded cast including Josh O'Connor and Glenn Close.
- Rian Johnson said the film is "endlessly malleable," pushing for a wide theatrical release, while hinting Benoit Blanc faces his most dangerous case yet.
- This major investment and Netflix’s confidence suggest the film could expand the franchise's reach and possibly shift to a darker, more complex tone.
