It’s been over a year since Netflix acquired the rights to two more “Knives Out” movies and fans are itching for their release. Luckily, the trailer for “Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery” was released just this morning.
Driving the news: “Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery” will officially hit Netflix on Dec. 23rd. The trailer, just released today, shows Daniel Craig reprising his role as Detective Benoit Blanc.
You expected a mystery.

You expected a puzzle.
But for one person on this island, this is not a game.

- According to Variety, “‘Glass Onion’ is set in Greece on the private island of tech billionaire Miles Bron, played by Norton, where another game of whodunnit will take place.”
- While Craig is returning for the “Knives Out” sequel, he’s surrounded by a new all-star cast, including Ethan Hawke, Kate Hudson, Kathryn Han, Janelle Monáe and more.
What they’re saying: “Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery” will premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival this month before debuting on Netflix.
- Writer Rian Johnson has talked about the plot of the coming movies, explaining that they’re not necessarily “sequels.”
- “I’ve never really been interested in doing sequels, but this, the idea of doing more of these with Daniel as his character, is not sequels. It’s just what Agatha Christie did,” Johnson said, per Us Weekly.
- “It’s just coming up with a whole new mystery, a whole new location, all new cast, whole new mechanics of the appeal of a mystery and everything. It’d be a blast,” continued Johnson.
