May 24 (UPI) -- Knives Out 3 has an official title and release date.

Rian Johnson, who wrote and directed the first two films, announced the news Friday.

The new sequel will be titled Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery and debut on Netflix in 2025.

"In the beginning, the knives came out. Then behold, the glass was shattered. But the most dangerous case yet is about to be revealed," Daniel Craig says in a teaser as his character, Benoit Blanc.

The original Knives Out was released in November 2019 and was followed by Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, which debuted on Netflix in December 2022.
