| Description: |
Acclaimed writer and director Rian Johnson (Brick, Looper, Star Wars: The Last Jedi) pays tribute to
mystery mastermind Agatha Christie in KNIVES OUT, a fun, modern-day murder mystery where everyone
is a suspect. 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.
With an all-star ensemble including Chris Evans, Ana de Armas, Jamie Lee Curtis, Michael Shannon, Don
Johnson, Toni Collette, LaKeith Stanfield, Katherine Langford and Jaeden Martell, KNIVES OUT is a witty
and stylish whodunnit guaranteed to keep audiences guessing until the very end. |
