Benoit Blanc is returning to the BFI London Film Festival.

Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery has been announced as the festival’s opening film on 8th October.

It marks a return to the festival for Rian Johnson’s murder mystery franchise after the original Knives Out was a gala screening in 2019, and Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery closed the festival in 2022.

The third film’s cast includes Daniel Craig, Josh O’Connor, Glenn Close, Josh Brolin, Mila Kunis, Jeremy Renner, Kerry Washington, Andrew Scott, Cailee Spaeny, Daryl McCormack, and Thomas Haden Church.
