    Take a Magnifying Glass to The ‘Knives Out 2’ Title

    The new Rian Johnson whodunnit drops this holiday season.

    June 13, 2022

Time to get your knives out: Rian Johnson has shared the official title for his upcoming Knives Out sequel. Better erase Knives Out 2 from the center of your conspiracy bulletin board. Pencil in Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery instead. Is there anything we can deduce about the film’s top-secret plot from this reveal? Let’s investigate.

Here’s what we know about Glass Onion: The new flick will take master sleuth Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig) to the Mediterranean, where he’s tasked with solving another mystery. The film shares its beachside setting with quite a few whodunnit predecessors, including Agatha Christie’s Evil Under the Sun and the devilishly clever Stephen Sondheim-penned The Last of Sheila, which Johnson cited as an influence on the first Knives Out. Benoit Blanc, of course, is also canonically a Sondheim fan: In the first Knives Out we caught him singing along to “Losing My Mind” from the prolific composer’s Follies.

Alongside the returning Craig, Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery stars a whole new cast of suspects, including Edward Norton, Janelle Monáe, Kathryn Hahn, Leslie Odom Jr., Jessica Henwick, Madelyn Cline with Kate Hudson and Dave Bautista. We’ll have to wait to find out how this whodunnit unfolds. You’ve got plenty of time to place your bets because Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery won’t hit Netflix until later this year.
