As much as I take the murder mystery genre seriously," he continued, "I take the genre of a Muppet movie seriously. I think those two things have very different rules. You can either have a Benoit Blanc mystery that has Muppets in it, but they'll feel out of place. Or you can have a Muppet movie that Benoit Blanc is in, but it'll feel like a Muppet movie. And it would just be tough for Johnson to top his original film, which was so smart and singular—hilarious, but also legitimately suspenseful. His characters felt richer (no pun intended) the first time around, and his ensemble cast had more to do across the board. “Glass Onion” offers some meaty and meaningful performances, particularly from Janelle Monáe, Kate Hudson, and Daniel Craig, once again doing his best Foghorn Leghorn impression as the intrepid detective Benoit Blanc. And several of his high-profile cameos are a giddy delight. But multitalented actors capable of daring, exciting work, such as Leslie Odom Jr. and Kathryn Hahn, frustratingly go to waste in underdeveloped supporting parts.

If you didn’t follow Bautista’s wrestling career, then the first time you noticed him was probably in Guardians of the Galaxy, based on the Marvel comics, in 2014. Hugh Grant is featured a couple of times throughout Glass Onion but very briefly each time and visibly once. Near the beginning of the film, his voice can be heard behind a bathroom door as he talks to Blanc. Later on, he can finally be seen as he opens the door for Janelle Monáe's character. He appears to be in the process of baking, as he's wearing a dirty apron and holding a jar of some sort of ingredient mix.The filmmaker also suggested that the third film may finally come with his original, intended subtitle: A Benoit Blanc Mystery. Following the reveal of Blanc's partner Phillip in Glass Onion, Rian Johnson confirmed that Blanc is gay during the London Film Festival. [3] According to Johnson, Blanc's sexuality had been in his mind since he wrote the original Knives Out, so that when the time came to write Glass Onion he felt it was natural to write a scene featuring Blanc's partner. [4] When audiences anticipated Benoit Blanc's return to the silver screen, they likely weren't expecting to see him playing Among Us in his bathtub. However, this lighthearted scene heavily foreshadows that Glass Onion would become a murder mystery of epic proportions. The main way this parallel happens, however, is through Claire's political campaign. Miles' wealth is one of the main reasons behind Claire's success, as his company had been endorsing her and vice versa. As such, Claire endorsed Klear, a highly unstable alternative fuel source pitched by Miles, which puts her career at risk. Despite the risk to human lives that could come through endorsing Klear in Glass Onion, Claire does so to keep her career going. This is a clear commentary on the often corrupt politicians in today's political climate, and one of the most pertinent parallels between characters and real-world celebrities in Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery.

The most exciting creative thing to me right now is that third movie. And so, I think I'm going to hop right into it. Not because of a contractual obligation, but, genuinely, that's the shiny object I find my nose pointed toward right now," he explained. While some may find this way of categorizing sequels odd, it’s simply the way that the Academy has operated for some time. David Yurkovich is the 2017 Delaware Division of the Arts Fellow in the category of literature (fiction). David began writing in 1992 with a focus on graphic novels and comics. His first self-published comic was funded by a grant by the Xeric Foundation. As a writer and illustrator, his works include Death by Chocolate and Less Than Heroes (both published by Top Shelf Productions) and Altercations (published by Sleeping Giant). Later, in the film Glass Onion, Helen Brand approached Blanc about helping him solve who killed her twin sister, Andi Brand. Benoit agrees to help and goes to Miles Bron's private island to get to the bottom of it. He successfully figures out that Miles murdered Andi. Upon a first watch, audiences were on the edge of their seats as Miles informs Benoit that he didn't invite the detective on his island vacation. Even though Miles casually deflects this "anonymous" invitation, the private detective warns him that anonymous invitations are "not to be trifled with."

The key is landing on something that first of all feels different than the first two and also feels like the only reason for us to keep making these is if we're excited about making them," Johnson told Digital Spy.
