Daniel Craig debuted a noticeably different appearance while attending the premiere of “Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery” alongside his co-stars Mila Kunis, Kerry Washington, and Glenn Close.

Daniel Craig, the actor known for playing James Bond, has been portraying the detective Benoit Blanc in the *Knives Out* films since 2019, and he’s returning for another movie in the series.

Daniel debuted a new haircut as he arrived on the red carpet for the opening night of the BFI London Film Festival at the Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall in London on Wednesday.

Daniel had changed his usual hairstyle, opting for a messy, full look instead of his typically sleek, silver hair. He completed the look with a grey tweed suit, a light blue shirt, and a red striped tie.

Actress Mila, 42, stood out on the red carpet in a stunning black gown. The dress had intricate beading, a jeweled top, and a full, satin skirt.

Kerry, 48, turned heads on the red carpet in a stunning, silver sequin gown that showed off her figure.

Glenn Close, a celebrated actress, chose a striking black and silver sequin jumpsuit with a unique dogtooth pattern and a flowing, harem-style fit.

Oh my god, her outfit was EVERYTHING! She completed the look with the most gorgeous velvet gloves – they hit right at the elbow, so chic! And can we talk about the shoes? Platform heels, open-toed, absolutely stunning. Then she just *covered* herself in silver jewelry, and it all worked perfectly. I’m obsessed!

Cailee Spaeny also attended the premiere, wearing a cream-colored halterneck dress with a sparkly top and a flowing skirt.

Irish actor Andrew Scott also attended, wearing stylish sage green pants, a butter-yellow blazer, a pink shirt, and a black tie.

Josh Brolin opted for a relaxed yet stylish look with grey pants, a white t-shirt, and a green velvet blazer.

Daryl McCormack was sharply dressed in a loose-fitting grey suit, which he wore with a dark green shirt and a black and white polka dot tie.

Daniel Craig is receiving rave reviews for his performance as detective Benoit Blanc in the new film, *Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery*. Before its release, the movie achieved a perfect 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes, signaling a major success.

The latest movie in Rian Johnson’s popular mystery series features detective Blanc solving a disturbing murder that takes place in a gloomy church.

The film is not out until December 12, but early critics’ reviews have been glowing.

Collider praised ‘Wake Up Dead Man’ as a more complex, intense, and emotionally resonant story than the previous books. They noted that Johnson delves into themes of belief, reason, and how we create myths to cope with life, all within a captivating murder mystery.

Oh my gosh, everyone was *right* about this one! Punch Drunk Critics totally nailed it – they said it’s the most complicated, mind-blowing mystery ever, and honestly, I completely agree! It’s not just a ‘who done it,’ it’s about, like, *everything* – faith, whether people can actually change, getting even, and learning to let go. It’s just… perfect.

Meanwhile, The Wrap branded the film a ‘glorious, goofy gothic horror.’

Despite focusing heavily on questions about death, ‘Wake Up Dead Man’ – the third film in the ‘Knives Out’ series from writer and director Rian Johnson – is surprisingly vibrant and full of life.

As a lifestyle expert, I’m thrilled to share that filming for this exciting Netflix movie began last summer! The director, Rian, has been raving about the incredible cast they’ve brought together – it sounds like a really talented group!

He said he feels fortunate to have worked with some of his favorite actors in each of these films, and that’s especially true with this one, including Daniel Craig and the rest of the cast.

Everyone involved is also genuinely kind and works well together, which creates a really positive atmosphere – almost like a family dinner. For a film with so many people, that kind of good working relationship is essential.

Jeremy will have a significant role in the third movie. He previously made a cameo in the second film as a bottle of ‘Renning Hot’ habanero sauce.

He took that joke in stride and Johnson was thrilled to get the chance to work with him. 

‘Jeremy’s a great actor who I’ve wanted to work with for a long time,’ Rian told Netflix’s Tudum.

I was so glad he didn’t mind the hot sauce joke! He’s really contributing to the project, so we’ll make sure the sauce doesn’t appear in the actual filming. We might put a few bottles out for people to enjoy with the food, though.

The new mystery film, Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, will first be shown in some movie theaters on November 28th, and then will be available to stream on Netflix starting December 12th.
