Overview
- The third Knives Out installment premiered at TIFF to overwhelmingly positive reviews, with early Rotten Tomatoes scores peaking at 100% before settling around 96% as more critiques posted.
- Netflix released the official trailer, introducing a locked‑room church mystery and showcasing an ensemble that 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.
- Reviewers describe the film as the series’ darkest and most gothic entry, engaging themes of faith, community and the misuse of religious rhetoric without sacrificing the franchise’s humor.
- Josh O’Connor is widely cited as the breakout, with critics noting Daniel Craig’s Benoit Blanc returns in fine form but enters later than usual as the story first foregrounds O’Connor’s character.
- Netflix confirms a two‑week limited theatrical run starting Nov. 26 ahead of global streaming on Dec. 12, as Rian Johnson reiterates his preference for a longer big‑screen window.
