After the short theatrical performance at the end of November, Crystal Onion: a mystery at loggerheads premiered for Netflix subscribers last weekend. Writer-director Rian Johnson has teamed up with Daniel Craig to deliver another mystery involving a colorful cast of characters for investigator Benoit Blanc to solve. Like its predecessor, glass onion received many positive reviews, but Johnson shared that there’s a specific reason he’s “crazy” about the knives out continuation.
In fact, the best term for glass onionThe report of knives out it would be a “sequel” because other than Benoit Blanc still starring, it’s a standalone story that can easily be enjoyed by people who haven’t seen the first film. To do this, during his conversation with the Atlantic, Rian Johnson explained how upset he was a mystery of knives was added as glass onioncaption of, saying:
I tried to make them independent. Honestly, I’m crazy that we have A Knives Out Mystery in the title. You know? I want it to be simply called Glass Onion. I get it, and I want everyone who enjoyed the first movie to know it’s next in the series, but also all I care about is that it’s a new novel ready to be a work every time. But there is a thousand-sun gravity to serialized storytelling.
On the one hand, as Rian Johnson pointed out, I understand why Netflix decided to include a mystery of kniveshow to listen glass onion that alone may not be enough to warn some people that this is yet another story with Benoit Blanc. On the other hand, Johnson has repeatedly said how the works of Agatha Christie, especially The Adventures of Hercule Poirot, inspired what she did with knives out Yes glass onion, and each of these stories had their own distinct titles. Perhaps a good compromise would have been to call her Glass onion: a mystery of Benoit Blancbut then you meet people who don’t remember the name of Daniel Craig’s character from the beginning.
Although it would be nice if Netflix removed the subtitles when inserting knives out 3 together, given what Rian Johnson thinks, it is more likely that the a mystery of knives will stay for the threequel. The important thing to remember is that Johnson will continue to make these films as a standalone business. If you’re looking for some sort of serialized story starring Benoit Blanc, this isn’t the film series for you. That said, given all that has been said about a certain cameo in glass onionI wouldn’t mind seeing that person reappear for knives out 3.
