Netflix's sequel to Knives Out is officially named and will be released on Christmas Day

Netflix's sequel to Knives Out has officially been revealed with an official title and premiere date. Netflix announced today (June 14) that users will be able to watch Glass Onion: A Knives Out Story this Christmas holiday.

The upcoming "Knives Out" will be directed by Ryan Johnson, the director of the first film, and "007" actor Daniel Craig will once again play detective Benoit Blanc. According to the short film trailer released by Netflix, the rest of the cast includes Dave Bautista, Madelyn Cline, Janelle Monáe, Kathryn Hahn, Jessica Henwick, Kate Hudson, Edward Norton and Leslie Odom Jr.

According to Netflix’s official description, it will take place in Greece. Johnson shared his vision for the film in a post on Twitter:

“What I love about Agatha Christie is that she never tested the waters creatively. I think it’s a misconception that her books used the same formula over and over again, fans know the opposite is true.

It's not just about design or murder methods, she's constantly expanding the genre conceptually. Under the umbrella of Mystery Man, she's written spy thrillers, original killer horrors, serial killer hunts, gothic romances, psychological character studies, glam travelogues.

When I was making Knives Out, that’s what got me excited about the prospect of creating more mysteries with Daniel as Benoit Blanc — emulating Christie, making each film feel like a brand new book, with its own tone, ambition, raison d’être… and title.”
