Set for release in November 2019 and premiering at this year’s London Film Festival, Knives Out is the latest title from acclaimed writer and director Rian Johnson (Brick, Looper, Star Wars: The Last Jedi). This fun modern-day murder mystery pays tribute to mystery mastermind Agatha Christie.
Johnson has chosen an impressive and recognisable cast for this ‘contemporary whodunnit’ film full of unexpected twists and turns from start to finish. When renowned crime novelist Harlan Thrombey (Christopher Plummer) is found dead at his estate just after his 85th birthday, the inquisitive and debonair Detective Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig) is mysteriously enlisted to investigate. From Harlan’s dysfunctional family to his devoted staff, Blanc sifts through a web of red herrings and self-serving lies to uncover the truth behind Harlan’s untimely death.
