Where to stream 95% rated drama series starring Knives Out actor as Wake Up Dead Man arrives in days
A new Knives Out cast member once featured in a top-rated drama series viewers binged in one sitting.
The third instalment of the popular Daniel Craig-led movie franchise, Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery is set to land on Netflix in the coming days.
It will see Craig reprise his role of suave private detective Benoit Blanc, who heads to a small church in upstate New York to investigate the 'perfectly impossible' murder of a distinguished priest.
He is joined by an all-new ensemble cast, including Hollywood legends Josh O'Connor, Glenn Close, Josh Brolin, Mila Kunis and Jeremy Renner.

Kerry Washington, Andrew Scott, Cailee Spaeny, Daryl McCormack and Thomas Haden Church also feature.
After releasing in theaters on November 26, the movie will soon release on Netflix where it will no doubt dominate the charts.
Alien: Romulus star Cailee Spaeny joins the action-mystery as Simone Vivane, a former cellist.
But she previously co-starred in a critically-acclaimed miniseries opposite Kate Winslet and Julianne Nicholson.
So, if you're stuck on what to watch next, it should be this.
Racking up a near-perfect 95 percent Rotten Tomatoes score, the series first aired in 2021.
The Emmy-winning series is based in Philadelphia and stars Winslet as Detective Marianne Sheehan, who is tasked with investigating the murder of a teen mom, while also handling the disappearance of another young girl.
Sheehan must also grapple with personal struggles, including a divorce, a custody battle for her grandson, and the death of her son.
Spaeny plays Erin McMenamin, a character central to the story, but to avoid spoilers we won't reveal who.
The show in question is, of course, Mare of Easttown.
To see Spaeny in action, stream all seven episodes on Prime Video via the HBO add-on in the US, or with a NOW subscription in the UK.
The New Yorker's Naomi Fry hailed it a 'gruesome, engrossing miniseries' and praised its 'terrific performances'.
Meanwhile, Film Cred's Nuha Hassan described the drama as an 'exceptional limited series that deals with real-life values with fascinating, vulnerable characters'.
Over on IMDB, one fan declared Mare of Easttown a 'masterpiece' adding: "I literally watched all seven episodes in one day.
"Then, after it had all ended, I didn't know what to do with my life."
A second echoed: "Watched it in one go, started at 4pm and finished at 2am... You are in for a ride!"
The Mare of Easttown is streaming now on Prime Video, HBO and NOW.
Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery drops on Netflix worldwide on Friday December 12.
