Kerry Washington will be joining Daniel Craig in Knives Out 3. Craig will return as detective Benoit Blanc. “Challengers” star Josh O’Connor, actor Andrew Scott, and actress Cailee Spaeny join Washington and Craig in the new film.

Washington, 47, recently released her memoir, “Thicker Than Water,” in 2023. The book dives into many of Washington’s life experiences, including her time on “Scandal,” growing up in the Bronx, and the revelation that she recently discovered her father, Earl Washington, was not her biological father.
“I found out that my dad who raised me is not my biological father,” Washington told Erika D. Smith at the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books, per People. “And it was something that my parents had intended to not tell me ever, but they were kind of forced into telling me.”
Washington has been a mainstay in the industry for years, starring in hit films and shows, including “Scandal,” “Little Fires Everywhere,” “Ray,” “Save the Last Dance” and “Django Unchained.” She currently appears in Hulu’s “UnPrisoned,” which she also executive produces.
