Rian Johnson Working on ‘Knives Out 3’: “It’s Coming Along” — World of Reel

In March 2021, Netflix had obtained the rights to two ‘Knives Out’ sequels for $450 million; 2022’s ‘Glass Onion’ was the first one.

LOVE these movies! Can’t wait for more. Now how about a Glass Onion 4K disc from Criterion to tide us over…?

Title reveal...

 

[Jeff Cooper]

This is a title that could really use a comma. Is it supposed to be
Wake Up, Dead Man?
Or
Wake Up Dead, Man.

This is a title that could really use a comma. Is it supposed to be
Wake Up, Dead Man?
Or
Wake Up Dead, Man.

Maybe THAT’S the mystery…?

Wake Up, Dead Man?

Wake Up Dead, Man.

I think it is meant as a command.

I loved the first one, kind of thought the second one was pretty bad. Hopefully, the third one recovers and the odd numbered ones are gems.

Thought the first film was OK, but found the mystery was a little too straightforward. Interested to check out the other installments.

The reveal of the murderer is totally secondary to the Noah Segan-role.

 

[Matt Hough]

Looking forward to it. Enjoyed both installments in the series thus far.

 

[Sam Favate]

This is also the title of a U2 song from 1997. I wonder if we’ll hear it in the movie.

End credits song, like Glass Onion I would assume.

All three are actually named after songs. Johnson took the title for the first movie from a Radiohead song.

The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed O'Connor and Spaeny, but not Lohan or Hardy.

My interest would drop if they include Lohan in the cast. Not sure why they'd want to go that direction.

 

[Philip Verdieck]

Best line of the franchise was from Chris Evans: "Shut up with that Kentucky-Fried, Foghorn Leghorn drawl!"

My interest would drop if they include Lohan in the cast.

I see no reason to doubt that Rian Johnson knows what he is doing here. If he does want to cast Lindsay Lohan, he must think he has a role for which she is the best choice.

I like Lindsay Lohan, so her presence wouldn't be a dealbreaker for me. But Johnson could add an actor I don't like and normally avoid (for the sake of argument, I'll plug Mel Gibson in here because I can't stand him) and I would still watch this because I trust his judgment. Johnson knocked it out of the park with the first two, so I'm willing to go where he wants with who he wants in it.
