I hope he ends up working with Matt Berry like he said he wanted to.

I’m in. Glass Onion was very good.

Very curious about who will be in the cast. I'd love to see Rachel Weisz star alongside her husband especially since she's worked with Rian before.

I hoping it is a regular whodunnit with a beginning, middle and third act reveal. Rather than the mini reveal flashback halfway through the movie.

Knives Out... In Space!

I'd like to see Brad Pitt ! I think he's too well known though.

Was the Glass Onion considered Knives Out 2?

The full title, much to Rian Johnson's dismay, is Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, so yes.

[HomerThompson]

That “full” title isn’t actually in the movie, so it’s just Glass Onion as Death on the Nile isn’t Murder on the Orient Express II lol

[Cremildo]

"Knives Out 3" is just a placeholder thread title until the official movie title is announced. I never thought I'd have to explain this.

What else did you think it was?

I just hope that JGL will finally appear as a character in this one.

Also any guesses on names? "Country Pie" (Bob Dylan)? "French Inhaler" (Warren Zevon)? "Sweet Scarlet" (Cat Stevens)? Maybe "Whisper Pines" or "Forbidden Fruit" by the Band? Rian loves his 60s/70s rock so I wouldn't be surprised if the title is from an artist then.

I anticipate a full meta moment where JGL plays some actor or something and when it is mentioned that Blanc recently worked on the Andi Brand case JGL mentions that he was hired by Bron to do the “gong” for his island.

It's too bad we probably won't get a Muppets crossover.

[Kevinicus]

Will it actually be a clever whodunit this time? You know. One that's not so obvious early on with a bunch of superfluous nonsense surrounding everything?

The first two had a lot of "fun and interesting 'characters'" (or so people say), who ultimately don't matter much to anything that actually transpires. They're just window dressing.

Am i the only one who thinks Ke Huy Quan would be amazing in a Knives out movie

"I’m starting to work on the third movie now, and that’s also what’s got me creatively jazzed: I don’t have to replicate the last movie at all. The goal is to strike out in a completely new direction tonally and thematically.” - Johnson
