Star Wars stalwart Rian Johnson is giving the murder mystery genre a fresh spin in Knives Out – a wry, sharp whodunnit with a starry ensemble.
Daniel Craig, Jamie Lee Curtis, Chris Evans, Toni Collette, Michael Shannon, Ana de Armas, Christopher Plummer, Lakeith Stanfield and more are all on board – but the show belongs to Craig and his thick southern drawl.
