Knives Out

Murder mystery follow-up is out on the streaming service now.

Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery is streaming now on Netflix. How did @rianjohnson and @EdwardNorton so perfectly capture late 2022 @elonmusk?” someone else asked. Craig is the only actor from Knives Out to return for the sequel, which places Blanc in the middle of a whole new mystery on a Greek island.

The sequel to 'Knives Out' has many familiar faces among announced cast members, but a number of surprise guests also appear throughout.

Most recently, Lyonne has been acclaimed for her Netflix series [Russian Doll](https://time.com/5509932/russian-doll-netflix-review/), in which her character must solve the mystery of how she became caught in a Groundhog Day-esque time loop. In the original Knives Out, he voiced a character named Detective Hardock in an in-universe TV series watched by Ana De Armas’ character. [Ethan Hawke](https://time.com/5895308/good-lord-bird-showtime-review/) pops up briefly in Greece wearing sunglasses and a ponytail and looking very official. [Natasha Lyonne](https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Atime.com+natasha+lyonne&rlz=1C5GCEM_enUS992US992&oq=site%3Atime.com+natasha+lyonne&aqs=chrome..69i57j69i58.6242j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#:~:text=People%20Can%27t%20Look,%E2%80%BA%20Entertainment%20%E2%80%BA%20awards) has also earned a coveted place on this star-studded video call. He pops up in her raucous, laughably large COVID social bubble at the beginning of the movie. [Knives Out](https://time.com/5739463/knives-out-review/) was a smash-hit in 2019, so it’s no wonder that so many big names jumped at the chance to be included in its sequel, Glass Onion—especially if it included a ticket to the islands of Greece where the movie filmed. If not, we can at least appreciate Grant in an apron covered in flour, clearly picking up the pandemic baking trend. But apparently he has a lot of famous friends, and many of the cameos come in the form of celebrities playing themselves as they Zoom with a bored Benoit. The movie may also be paying a winking tribute to Sondheim’s past work. Lansbury, the beloved star of Murder, She Wrote, died in October, so fans will be heartened to see her onscreen one last time.

We'll join the action just after the flashback following Benoit Blanc and Helen-as-Andi ends, when the Distuptors realise Duke's pistol is missing and Helen's ...

And Miles' murders are the essence of what makes him such a charlatan. Like his Glass Onion building they look complex, but there's nothing in the middle of them. Eventually, they work up to destroying the one thing, as he puts it, that nobody wants destroyed: the Mona Lisa. Klear kills him, and ensures he'll get his wish to be mentioned in the same breath as the Mona Lisa. His mates smashing those artworks is, weirdly enough, a reaction that fits Miles' view of the world. It's just that the breath is going to be saying, "Miles Bron, the guy who destroyed the Mona Lisa with his incredibly dangerous fuel". She realises it's in Miles' office, but as soon as she's got it and revealed who she actually is to the group, Miles burns the napkin with his absurdly powerful lighter. This, Blanc says, is because Lionel flagged up the existence of the cocktail napkin to Miles. Just as she'd noted earlier on, Kathryn Hahn's Claire realises they're in the middle of the feared "Hindenburg". Blanc concludes that Miles did all three murders – or, at least, two murders and one attempted murder – to make sure that Andi never made public the fact that Miles stole the Alpha company from her, and that she was the actual genius behind the idea which started Alpha. Helen launches a nugget of Klear at the fireplace. We'll join the action just after the flashback following Benoit Blanc and Helen-as-Andi ends, when the Distuptors realise Duke's pistol is missing and Helen's just taken a bullet right in the diary.

Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery director has revealed why Daniel Craig's Benoit Blanc doesn't share any scenes with his partner.

“And also, as I said at the LFF, who wouldn’t want to live with the human being that he happens to live with? “But I don’t know that I can ever see the movies being more about that. It’s the delight of connecting up that moment, when you come back to it halfway through, with the moment from the beginning was kind of the idea of it,” said Johnson.
