Another Fantastic Choice For Knives Out 3's Cast Is Josh Brolin.
Another excellent pick for the Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery cast is Brolin; although character and story points are still under wraps, the energetic ensemble cast is become clearer daily. Brolin most famously portrayed Thanos, the main evil of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, in Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame. Along with two Sicario films and both of Denis Villeneuve's Dune, he has starred in Deadpool 2. Brolin is thus no stranger to dealing with an ensemble cast and maybe has more franchise experience than any actor joining the Knives Out 3 group thus far.
Apart from his abundance of franchise knowledge, Brolin is equally respected as an actor among his co-stars such as Close or Renner. Westerns are what made Brolin most famous; his performance as the tough and resolute Llewelyn Moss in the Best Picture winner, No Country for Old Men, helped to revive his career. But his performance of Dan White in the film Milk brought him a nomination for Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role from the Academy Awards.
Out three casts, knives out Josh Brolin
Josh Brolin is formally cast in Wake Up Dead Man: a Knives Out Mystery. With Daniel Craig reprising his role as the eccentric investigator Benoit Blanc, the success of 2019's Knives Out prompted two Netflix sequels, Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery in 2022 and the upcoming Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery. Writer-director Rian Johnson has been rapidly assembling the cast for his third murder mystery—which includes previously revealed Josh O'Connor, Cailee Spaeny, Andrew Scott, Kerry Washington, Glenn Close, Jeremy Renner, and Mila Kunis—in past week.
The Hollywood Reporter claims now that Brolin is the most recent actor joining the fast growing all-star cast of Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery. Plot elements remain under wraps, hence it's unknown what character Brolin will be portraying, same as with the seven actors that were already cast. But the third film is supposed to begin shooting in the United Kingdom in early June before it comes out in 2025.
The Cast of Knives Out 3 Has Officially Been Announced; Among the Famous Faces Is a Star Who Continues a Strange Trend Emerging in the Series
For Brolin and Renner—the latter as Clint Barton/Hawkeye— Wake Up Dead Man will serve as an MCU reunion. Given Brolin's broad acting ability, he may actually fit Knives Out 3 as the main killer or protagonist. Should this be the case, Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery would carry on the MCU actor tradition of killing following Chris Evans' Ransom Drysdale and Edward Norton. For now, regardless of his part, Brolin is another outstanding addition to Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery's roster.

The Curious Title of Rian Johnson's Third Knives Out Film Wake Up Dead Man Might Have a Thematic Connection with a Notable Rock & Roll Band
The title of the film raises intriguing issues for multiple different reasons. From their 1989 album "Steel Wheels," the band The Rolling Stones boasts a somewhat well-known song called "Wake Up Dead Man." Given the frequency of rock music in previous editions, this could point to a rock-n-roll theme or could be just a fortuitous occurrence.
Not yet any information has been leaked suggesting how closely the title will be connected with the band; it could be some time before the movie's plot is revealed in any more exact clarity. Still, the movie's concept probably follows the formula of the first two films. Rian Johnson's work on the franchise has continuously shown his ability to craft intriguing puzzles and ensemble cast of suspects. By 2025 it should be an exciting release.
