Sinopsis Film Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery

JAKARTA - The latest sequel to the film Knives Out, Glass Onion is confirmed to be released this year. The film, titled Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, will be released in December.

Directed by Rian Johnson, this film tells the journey of detective Benoit Blanc, played by Daniel Craig. This time he goes to Greece to solve the latest case.

The film will star a number of world actors, including Daniel Craig, Edward Norton, Janelle Monáe, Kathryn Hahn, Leslie Odom Jr., Jessica Henwick, Madelyn Cline, Kate Hudson, and Dave Bautista.

The title Glass Onion was taken by Johnson from the title song of the Beatles group. This is also one of Benoit Blanc's witty traits. “Initially I wanted to find an equivalent for something 'clear', so I got 'glass'. After that I searched for songs with the word glass, and because I'm a big fan of The Beatles, the first song that came up was 'Glass Onion',” said Rian Johnson.

In addition, the concept of this sequel will focus on dinner. Detective Blanc will find out who is behind the latest case. “You're trying to invite people you like. But the truth is you never know if it will work. In the end, you're just trying to get the best actor for each role, the most appropriate actor for each character," he explained. "So we have to roll the dice and hope. Fortunately, we put together a great group who fit in very well,” said Johnson. Rian Johnson turned a billionaire's house into a luxury resort in Greece. The characters are made similar to the first Knives Out players.

"The story begins when he sends out invitations to his friends to come and take part in a murder mystery game in an exotic location," explains Rian Johnson.

Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery will be out on Netflix on December 23.
