Amazon Prime Video is on a roll after having acquired the exclusive rights for another hit creation, Daniel Craig’s comedy-mystery Knives Out. It will begin streaming on June 12.
The movie, written by Rain Johnson and produced by Ram Bergman, was released by Lionsgate in the US in September 2019 and grossed $312 million worldwide with critical acclaim and numerous nominations.
The whodunit “Knives Out” is an A-list-turned-slay-list party starring Daniel Craig, Toni Collette, Chris Evans and Jamie Lee Curtis. It’s fun to watch super-serious actors get to misbehave.

The modern-day whodunit is exactly what you don’t expect out of a Sherlock.
The plot is a mix of mysteries and sarcasm filled barbs when detective Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig) demystifies the demise of wealthy and shrewd novelist Harlan Thrombey (Christopher Plummer).
Things go haywire after Thrombey’s 85th birthday party at his mansion, when he is found dead the next morning.
An anonymous tip by someone who perhaps has ulterior motives enthrals Blanc in the murder-mystery.
The narration is a classic family fowl-play, with every single family member sniffing Thrombey’s inheritance.
Knives Out features a bandwagon of celebrated faces such as Chris Evans, Ana de Armas, Jamie Lee Curtis and Katherine Langford amongst many others, in pivotal roles.
