Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig) has a new whodunnit to solve in *Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery*, this one at a rural church, where Monsignor Jefferson Wicks (Josh Brolin) has been murdered: Was it the new priest (Josh O'Connor), any number of suspicious parishoners (Kerry Washington, Andrew Scott, Jeremy Renner, Cailee Spaeny), or surely not his loyal right-hand woman, Martha Delacroix (Glenn Close)?

Expanding wide in theaters, Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal star in *Hamnet*, directed by Chloé Zhao; *F1* arrives on Apple TV, and *Roofman* is available to stream on Paramount+.

On TV, *Percy Jackson and the Olympians* returns for its second season, where Percy journeys into the Sea of Monsters to make things right, a year after the events of season 1, which left his world at Camp Half-Blood turned upside down.

Plus, *All's Fair* and *It: Welcome to Derry* wrap up their first seasons, *Bel-Air* ends its four-season run, and Taylor Swift takes fans behind the scenes of her Eras Tour in the docuseries, *The End of an Era*.
