Development[edit]

Before the release of Knives Out (2019), Rian Johnson said he would like to create sequels with Detective Benoit Blanc investigating further mysteries, and already had an idea for a new film.^[3] On March 31, 2021, it was reported that Netflix bought the rights to two Knives Out sequels for over $400 million.^[4]

Writing[edit]

In June 2022, Johnson revealed that Knives Out 3 was a working title with his intent being that each film has a distinct title, citing the works of Agatha Christie as his inspiration for the films and the individual titles.^[5] In November 2022, Johnson said that he was preparing to work on writing the third film.^[6] By January 2023, Johnson confirmed that he had started writing the script for the third film, stating that it will be tonally and thematically different from the previous installments.^[7] Johnson later stated that though he had approved the subtitle of A Knives Out Mystery for the previous installment, he would like to rename the series and add A Benoit Blanc Mystery as subtitles to future installments.^[8]

In October 2023, following the resolution of the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike, Johnson announced that he had started working on the script for the third movie. The filmmaker stated that he has the premise planned, and can begin writing again.^[9]

Casting[edit]

Daniel Craig is expected to reprise his role, and acknowledged interest in the project.^[10] Craig was paid $100 million for his involvement.^[11]

Filming[edit]

Principal photography is scheduled to begin in fall 2024, in London.^[12]^[13]

Future[edit]

In September 2022, Johnson confirmed his intention to make more films in the series.^[14] Later that month Craig and Johnson separately said that they would continue making further films, so long as they were both involved together.^[15]
