Rian Johnson's third Knives Out film, Wake Up Dead Man, marks a departure from the traditional whodunit tone into something darker. Unlike its predecessors, this installment dives into a gothic drama that retains classic murder mystery elements. The teaser showcases a rural chapel environment with intriguing characters and a twist on the 'impossible crime' theme, suggesting a narrative steeped in complex class commentary. The transition aligns with Agatha Christie's broader storytelling style, moving beyond rich society to embrace small-town murder mysteries.
"The 'impossible crime,' he says, 'For a man of reason, this is the Holy Grail. This was dressed as a miracle. But it's just a murder. And I solve murders.'"},{
