Since taking over the reins of the IP from their father Albert R. Broccoli in ’95, half-siblings Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli have been responsible for some of the best entries in the franchise. From sticking with Daniel Craig as 007, despite the initial backlash, to reforming the franchise’s female characters, they have been successful in translating Ian Fleming’s work into the modern day.
While the search for the next James Bond is yet to end, for their work on the IP over the past three decades, the Bond Producers are now set to be honored with the Honorary Oscars.

Steven Spielberg created one hell of a revenge movie in 2005’s Munich, which was based on George Jonas’ book Vengeance. The film (and the book) was a fictionalized version of the real-life assassinations that followed the killing of Israeli athletes in the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich. It was one of Spielberg’s most controversial films as Mossad condemned the portrayal of their assassins in the film.

The Jaws director is unapologetic about the criticism that his film faced. He shared that he wanted the conversation to take place surrounding the themes of the film. Interestingly, it was one of the lowest-grossing Spielberg films in the United States.

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,...

So, can you resist the high-energy action of Jurassic Park, a cinematic marvel that not only shaped our childhoods but also stands out as a jewel in Steven Spielberg’s illustrious filmography?
The 1993 film, based on a screenplay by Michael Crichton and David Koepp, is undeniably entertaining, with those awe-inspiring dinosaurs romping through the primordial landscapes of our imaginations. Did we forget to mention the remote, scary island of Isla Nublar?
While the film is a masterpiece that integrates innovative visual effects & gripping storytelling, there is a lesser-known tidbit that adds a layer of human intrigue to the story. Behind the scenes, Sam Neill, our beloved Dr. Alan Grant, grappled with what he described as “an actor’s nightmare”: the quest for the perfect American accent.

Secret agents going rogue is such a common trope that sometimes we wish that people like Ethan Hunt or Jason Bourne would just follow their orders for change. When Daniel Craig started playing James Bond in 2006, it seemed like Bond went rogue on nearly every single mission, including most of Quantum of Solace, at least half of Skyfall, and basically, the first two-thirds of No Time To Die. Pierce Brosnan’s Bond went rogue in Die Another Day, too, with a full beard and no shirt, declaring “I’m checking out” from a hospital. And of course, Connery’s Bond was on an unsanctioned revenge mission at the start of Diamonds Are Forever.
But the most compelling Bond-goes-rogue movie of them all to this day remains Licence to Kill, which in 1989, would become the unintended swan song from Timothy Dalton’s fierce take on the character.

Daniel Craig is no longer James Bond, but his legacy as the famous fictional spy will continue to inspire those after him. Known for his intense portrayal of the character, the British actor brought a new dimension to the iconic role. While his dedication to the character and the franchise has left an indelible mark on the James Bond franchise, it is not a little-known fact about how much of a traumatic experience it was for him.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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:

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.

In 1997, Platinum Studios co-founder and chairman Scott Mitchell Rosenberg came up with a unique genre-mash concept. What if classic Western tropes were infused with a gritty alien invasion storyline?
This idea birthed the graphic novel "Cowboys & Aliens," where gunslingers Zeke Jackson and Verity Jones witness the crash-landing of an alien spaceship during a caravan ambush. The aliens that disembark the ship are not the friendly, benevolent type -- this is a race bent on invading and conquering Earth by destroying everything they set their sights on. Now, it is up to the cowboys to work together with the local natives to defeat the aliens at all costs, even if it means adapting to their superior, futuristic weapons to nudge the odds in their favor.
Although the one-sheet for Rosenberg's graphic novel was always geared toward a big-budget film adaptation, it wasn't until 2011 that the Jon Favreau-helmed "Cowboys & Aliens" was released,...

The James Bond franchise has come a long way, with 6 different actors portraying the iconic character til now, and Daniel Craig being the latest actor to portray the role of Special Agent 007. However, many fans of the age-old spy franchise believe that Pierce Brosnan is the greatest actor ever to don the role. The Irish actor became synonymous with the role and he attracted immense love and following from the fans of the franchise.

James Bond has remained a fan-favorite franchise through the decades, surviving not only the Cold War era by preying on the ideas of Russian espionage and imminent nuclear war but also adapting to the modern world by reflecting the ways of the 21st-century spycraft through Daniel Craig’s 007. However, the IP always seemed to get one thing wrong regarding its ambitious plots – the necessity of finding relevance in the story.

But without a change in trajectory, Bond would have fallen victim to the age-old disease of mass disinterest incurred due to the repetition of a formulaic plot.
One writer, however, had an idea for a script that could have introduced a Bond film unlike any ever done before.

The James Bond franchise has attained cult status mainly due to its suave and dashing protagonist who has been portrayed by various actors across generations, from Sean Connery to Daniel Craig. But none of these films would have been what they were without the mesmerizing beauty of the Bond girl who has provided the glamor quotient in plenty.

From Ursula Andress to stars like Jane Seymour, Halle Berry, Teri Hatcher, and Léa Seydoux, these actors have provided a lot of sizzle to the narratives over the years. While most of these stars took on the role in their 20s, Italian beauty Monica Bellucci made her Bond girl debut in her 50s in Spectre, thereby being the oldest actor to portray the part. Interestingly, Bellucci was pursued for the role long before Craig took over in 2006.

But first, some may wonder where superhero movies are on this list.

Keep your big-budget extravaganzas and intellectual properties! These days, Hollywood actors are breathlessly lining up to join the Benoit Blanc Cinematic Universe. Ever since Rian Johnson singled-handedly revived the big screen whodunnit with 2019's "Knives Out," the mid-budget murder-mystery series has become the hottest destination for rising stars, A-listers, and under-sung veterans of the industry to flex their acting muscles as the various colorful characters that occupy this world. Even the property's shift from the theatrical market to the streaming landscape three years later with Netflix's "Glass Onion" wasn't enough to deter folks from flocking to these movies like they're the next "Dune" sequel.
Following the announcement of Johnson's third "Knives Out Mystery" last month (now officially titled "Wake Up Dead Man"), it's become a daily guessing game trying to figure out who will sign on to match wits with Daniel Craig's sharp-witted Southern sleuth Blanc next.

Portraying one of the most iconic cinematic characters James Bond for over a decade, Hollywood star Daniel Craig has become one of the best actors to bring the character to life on the silver screen. However, starring in the spy film series, which required him to perform numerous action sequences, came with significant challenges.

Working in the franchise took a physical toll on the actor, so much so that he even intended to bow out as the suave spy after the 2015 film Spectre, in which he suffered the worst injury throughout his venture as the MI6 agent. Craig later revealed that he injured his knee while filming an action sequence with Dave Bautista.
