Three years after the first film, this followup will hit cinemas in mid-November, then stream via Netflix from December 23. Bring any group of people together in a family home, mode of transport or lavish vacation setting, and one thing just might happen: a murder, at least if whodunnits of the page and screen are to be believed. Agatha Christie loved that exact setup, as book-to-film adaptations Murder on the Orient Express and Death on the Nile have shown. The author’s play The Mousetrap and recent flick See How They Run, which riffs on it, make the same point. And, so does the clearly Christie-inspired Knives Out franchise.<\/p>\n

Yes, the latter is a franchise now, with sequel Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery due in cinemas for one week only mid-November, then on Netflix on Friday, December 23. Once again, Daniel Craig (No Time to Die) returns as Blanc, Benoit Blanc, in the first of two followups planned by the streaming platform \u2014 and after a first teaser trailer back in September, the film has just dropped its latest sneak peek. “Alright, when’s the murder-mystery start?” is still a fabulous line, as it was in the initial trailer; however, this time there’s a bit more context. The movie’s cast \u2014 Craig, obviously, plus Edward Norton (The French Dispatch), Janelle Mon\u00e1e (Antebellum), Kathryn Hahn (WandaVision), Leslie Odom Jr (The Many Saints of Newark), Jessica Henwick (The Gray Man), Madelyn Cline (Outer Banks), Kate Hudson (Mona Lisa and the Blood Moon) and Dave Bautista (Thor: Love and Thunder) \u2014 are in Greece, and they’re about to play a murder-mystery party game. Then, there’s an actual real dead body complicating their fun.<\/p>\n

If you saw the original \u2014 or any murder-mystery involving a motley crew of characters brought together in one location when someone turns up dead \u2014 then you’ll know how it works from there. There’s a lavish setting, that aforementioned big group of chalk-and-cheese folks, threats aplenty and just as much suspicion.<\/p>\n

Is the culprit Bautista’s Duke Cody on the yacht? Hudson’s Birdie Jay in the games room? Hahn’s Claire Debella by the pool? You’ll have to watch to find out, with the film getting sleuthing in cinemas between Wednesday, November 23\u2013Tuesday, November 29 \u2014 a month before the movie heads to streaming. And, you’ll want to get in quick, as it’s only showing on the big screen for that one week. After that, you’re back to waiting for an early Christmas gift at home. Just like its predecessor, Glass Onion is both written and directed by Rian Johnson, with the filmmaker moving onto the franchise after 2017’s Star Wars: Episode VIII \u2014 The Last Jedi \u2014 and still indulging his love of on-screen puzzles, as shone through in Brick and Looper as well.\n<\/p><\/div>\n
