Director Rian Johnson Reveals Shooting Details for Knives Out 2
Rian Johnson, the writer and director of Knives Out 2, announced on Twitter that filming has come to an end. Even if we don’t have a release date for Knives Out 2, with production completed, we should be seeing some footage of the eagerly anticipated sequel sooner rather than later.
Rian Johnson Talks About Knives Out 2:
In his first tweet, Johnson praised another filmmaker, Leos Carax, who premiered Annette at this year’s Cannes Film Festival as the opening film.
“We just finished production on the next Benoit Blanc mystery, and I finally watched Annette, and holy mama it’s terrific. Sending a lot of love and appreciation to our AMAZING crew and cast, as well as Leos Carax!” Johnson’s post reads.

Johnson has the luxury of time to unwind and appreciate another filmmaker’s work if production is on schedule. That’s excellent news for everyone since it should only take viewers a few minutes to watch Mr. Blanc’s (Daniel Craig) next Netflix adventure.

The star-studded cast of Knives Out 2 includes:
- Dave Bautista
- Kathryn Hahn
- Edward Norton
- Janelle Monáe
- Leslie Odom Jr.
- Kate Hudson.
The second sequel will be written and directed by Johnson again, with a third film already in the works after a $469 million agreement with Netflix.
Knives Out, which follows a police department’s hunt for an escaped convict played by Mel Gibson, has already acquired critical acclaim and earned over $311 million worldwide against a budget of $40 million.
The first film was also nominated for Best Original Screenplay at the 92nd Academy Awards, further increasing its value and prompting fans to anticipate the next one.
According to reports, Johnson is eager to continue producing Knives Out. The story for the third film in the franchise was already completed before filming even began on the second.
Mr. Blanc will be heading to Greece in the sequel, Knives Out 2, to solve another perplexing incident. There is little known about its plot thus far. Nonetheless, we should receive an official Netflix release date in the next few months, as Knives Out 2 begins its editing process.
