Chris Evans Tells Everyone To Eat Shit In The Trailer For Murder Mystery ‘Knives Out’
Captain America meets Agatha Christie.
Daniel Craig channelling Hercule Poirot? Chris Evans telling everybody to “eat shit”? A wall made entirely out of knives? I don’t really know what I was expecting from writer-director Rian Johnson after Star Wars: The Last Jedi, but this definitely wasn’t it.
Johnson’s new movie, Knives Out, is a modern-day whodunnit modelled after the novels of Agatha Christie. A crime novelist is murdered at his 85th birthday party, and it’s up to Detective Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig with one hell of an accent) to crack the case. “I suspect foul play,” he drawls during the trailer. “And I have eliminated no suspects.”
So yeah, this thing looks intensely hammy, but goddamn does it have a strong cast. Not just Craig and Evans, but also Jamie Lee Curtis, Don Johnson, Michael Shannon, Toni Collette, Lakeith Stanfield and Christopher Plummer.
