Disney+ New Releases: June 2025

There may not be many new Disney + releases this month, but there is still plenty to look forward to. With the first 10 episodes of season 5, Phineas and Ferb will return at the beginning of June ( 6 June ). This is the first time that new incidents have been released.

Writer-director Rian Johnson and his glittering solid, led by a genteel Daniel Craig, had joy hiding what the next Knives Out puzzle is about during the majority of the introduction to the Wake Up Dead Man portion of Saturday night’s Netflix Tudum event. We definitely don’t understand, in reality. However, the movie’s first trailer truck indicates that it is going for a more horizontal and darker voice than the standard humor that viewers remember from Knives Out and Glass Onion, including marketing.

A church bell dangerously sounds in the distance in the teaser as nighttime rains and shadows pour down on Craig’s unexpectedly unflappable Benoit Blanc. Blanc blatantly utters during the trailer for” The unattainable crime,” without any endearing wit or visual joke. This is the Holy Grail, in the eyes of a man of reason. A haunting song is played as an melancholy and Southern tone cries,” O Death, O Death ,Won’t you extra me over til another time,” throughout the entire thing.

The music selection may reveal a bit about the movie’s setting and potential dark places it intends to go, but we still know a little bit about the story of Wake Up Deceased Person beyond its fantastic ensemble, which includes Glenn Close, Kerry Washington, Jeremy Renner, Josh Brolin, Andrew Scott, and Cailee Spaeny.

The second Knives Out film was initially thought to be set in England, where the majority of the movie’s creation took place, according to initial rumors. Even so, we believe the English land might be used in place of something more American-centric and distinctively Southwestern for viewers. In fact, many Coen Brothers fans are likely familiar with the song” O, Death” from the video because it was Ralph Stanley’s own rendition of the song sung by the late music artist in Joel and Ethan Coen’s O Brother, Where Art Thou? ( 2000 ).

Stanley, it should be noted, is a story in the grass and folk music industry who won an award for his rendition of &#8220, O Death. His vocals, however, were used in O Brother ( and now Wake Up Dead Man ) to scream chills out when sung cappella in the third act of the Depression fable by Coens ‘ Mississippi-set depression. After all, the film is being sung by the mastermind behind a Ku Klux Klan book, which has assembled to murder and murder a young Black man on a trumped-up accusation based in belief, rather than by a simple musician.

This song’s inclusion by The Coens as sung by the KKK in the 1930s is probably not an accident sometimes. The song’s traditional origin story, which was written by Baptist preacher Lloyd Chandler, is known as” the old Appalachian folk song.” In fact, Chandler performed the song in North Carolina in the 1920s, supposedly as a result of a perception from God of the track in 1916. However, further investigation has established that Chandler’s structure shares a strange resemblance with a 1913 printed edition of a folk music ( which is likely much older ) from Journal of American Folklore. The book claimed that” Eastern North Carolina Negroes” were the snobs of the song.

Which is all, the album’s confusing nature is rooted in the tensions and social environment of the American South during the weeks and years of Jim Crow and after the Civil War. The Coens used it as a depressingly beautiful song of annihilation to address the mass murdering racists, and it is now being used to imply what appears to be the first Benoit Blanc mystery to return to the American South, a region of Benoit’s birthplace. ( One of the film’s law enforcement figures is dressed like someone from an American sheriff’s office as opposed to an English village, which further confirms this setting. )

Although all of this speculation is true, Johnson’s decision to use this song and Stanley’s Grammy-winning version of it in particular is likely to have been one. We are left to wonder how deeply Southern the roots of Johnson’s third murder mystery will be given how unflinchingly use what appear to be cozy murder mysteries to probe deeper issues of inequality and social decay in the modern world through both Glass Onion and Knives Out.

On December 12th, Wake Up Dead Man will be available on Netflix.
