Every major ensemble in the post-pandemic era seems to include a surprise addition that captivates public attention. Oppenheimer featured Casey Affleck, and now the upcoming Knives Out installment, Wake Up Dead Man, has added Mila Kunis to its roster, as reported by Deadline. Kunis is part of the latest wave of cast announcements for the Rian Johnson-directed film, joining the likes of Josh O’Connor, Cailee Spaeny, Andrew Scott, Kerry Washington, Jeremy Renner, Glenn Close, and Daniel Craig, with more names possibly still to come.
The controversial actress’s involvement might not be met with universal applause due to backlash from last fall. Kunis and husband Ashton Kutcher faced heavy criticism for writing letters in support of their former That ‘70s Show co-star Danny Masterson, a convicted rapist. Although the couple apologized and resigned from the board of Kutcher’s anti-child-trafficking charity, the response from the public was mixed.
Despite the previous controversy, Kunis’s acting career continues with roles in Wake Up Dead Man and other projects including Hallie Meyers-Shyer’s Goodrich, a romance film named The 47 Night Stand, and Will Gluck’s Jackpot, alongside Bryan Cranston and Jennifer Garner. Kunis also appeared in the 2022 Netflix release Luckiest Girl Alive and made a cameo in That ’70s Show spinoff That ’90s Show.
While details of Daniel Craig’s character Benoit Blanc’s next case in Wake Up Dead Man remain under wraps, a short teaser from Netflix hinted at it being his “most dangerous yet.” Johnson himself has expressed his excitement for the genre, emphasizing its versatility and the thrill of creating Benoit Blanc movies.
The anticipated release for Wake Up Dead Man is set for 2025.
