While Daniel Craig remains back-on-track with efforts toward the next chapter 007 chapter, the actor’s latest rollout is coming in November with Knives Out. The project was a hot-ticket item last year in Toronto along with a top-notch ensemble cast now headlining the new murder mystery opus. Plot details also remained underwraps for months as well but now that changes with the following:

Plot details are still thin following news that broke in September for Craig’s favored addition to the film which will otherwise give the Star Wars: The Last Jedi helmer a chance to mingle with a whodunit-style modern murder mystery drawn from his enthusiasm for Agatha Christie.
Writer/director and self-described Agatha Christie “nut” Rian Johnson and producing partner Ram Bergman are currently readying a company of their own to help finance their next film, Knives Out, ahead of Toronto International Film Festival this week. Deadline reported exclusively on Tuesday that actor Daniel Craig is set to have accepted the lead role in the new project which Johnson had previously staked in for Craig, a move that sets up a potential A-list roster in upcoming casting news.
