Rian Johnson has revealed the Knives Out 2 title. Plot details for the murder mystery sequel are currently unknown, though it is expected to follow Daniel Craig's eccentric private detective once again solving a case in the Mediterraneans. Joining Craig for Knives Out 2 are Dave Bautista, Edward Norton, Janelle Monáe, Kathryn Hahn, Leslie Odom Jr., Kate Hudson, Madelyn Cline, Jessica Henwick, Ethan Hawke and previous star Noah Segan.
Development on Knives Out 2 began ahead of the first film's release, though wasn't confirmed until a few months after it became a critical and commercial smash with Lionsgate originally set to produce and distribute once again. The sequel would see a change in pace a year later as Johnson and producing partner Ram Bergman, who retained the rights to the property, put up two sequels for auction, with Netflix winning the heated bidding war with a reported $469 million purchase. Knives Out 2 would begin filming in mid-2021 and now audiences are eagerly awaiting news of the film.
