Daniel Craig's role in Knives Out was only due to an accident

Lionsgate's "Knives Out", which has been a great success at both the word-of-mouth and the box office, has decided to produce a second film. The role of Detective Blanch, played by Daniel Craig in the film, has left a deep impression on the audience. According to the film's director Rian Johnson, Daniel Craig was able to star in "Knives Out" only because of an accident in "No Time to Die".

Rian Johnson, the director of "Knives Out", revealed new details about the production of "Knives Out" in an interview with foreign media "The Hollywood Reporter". Rian Johnson said that he only started writing the script of "Knives Out" in January 2018, and the first draft was finalized in the middle of the year. The final draft had to be sent out before September, and then Daniel Craig was signed, and shooting had to start within six weeks.

Although Daniel Craig was the top choice to play Blanc, it was almost like he was not cast in Knives Out. Rian Johnson said he purposely did not cast any particular actor as Blanc because of the possibility that scheduling conflicts would change the casting. However, Rian said: "Because of the three-month delay of No Time to Die, we were able to get Daniel Craig to film Knives Out at the right time.

The sequel to "Knives Out" has been confirmed to be produced. Daniel Craig and director Rian Johnson will both return, and the story will continue to focus on the detective played by Daniel Craig.
