Knives Out, a murder mystery in the Agatha Christie vein, was a smashing success with audiences when it arrived in 2019, earning more than $300 million worldwide. In the sequel, detective Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig) investigates a new crime involving even more bizarre suspects.
During a Twitter discussion in which he lauded Agatha Christie for the fact that she “never tread water artistically,” writer/director Rian Johnson revealed the film’s official title: Glass Onion.
In addition to Kathryn Hahn (WandaVision) and Dave Bautista (Guardians of the Galaxy) and Edward Norton (The French Dispatch) and Janelle Monáe (renowned musician), the cast of the sequel reads like a who’s who of Hollywood. Find out who will be returning and what will happen in Knives Out 2 right here.
Knives Out Recap
In the first scene of Knives Out, Harlan Thrombey (Christopher Plummer) is found dead just hours after celebrating his 85th birthday with his family at his sizable Massachusetts estate.
A wealthy mystery author named Thrombey is discovered by his housekeeper with his throat cut. The police determine right away that the death was a suicide, but private investigator Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig) is hired undercover to look into the case.
Blanc quickly learns that there is a problem in the family after sitting down with several members of it. Money is being taken, egos are being hurt, and affairs are being conducted. When Thrombey’s will is read, everyone is shocked to see that his nurse Marta Cabrera (Ana De Armas) is the only beneficiary, which worsens the situation.
From there, things intensify as the family makes increasingly severe attempts to convince Marta to reject the inheritance.
Benoit Blanc, played by Craig, is an eccentric Sherlock Holmes-like sleuth who keeps a close eye on everything and hunts for the culprit.
