Movie debuts December 23 on Netflix
This might be the best holiday present you get all month. Rian Johnson’s sequel to his 2019 hit Knives Out finds detective Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig) on a Greek island owned by billionaire tech guru Miles Bron (Edward Norton). The guests include a former supermodel (Kate Hudson), her assistant (Jessica Henwick), a conservative media influencer (Dave Bautista), the governor of Connecticut (Kathryn Hahn), a scientist (Leslie Odom Jr.) working for Miles, and Miles’ former business partner (Janelle Monáe). When a murder mystery game turns into an actual murder (or more), you know who can solve it. And you'll want to watch it happen: Reviews have been equally great for the sequel, leading many experts to predict that Glass Onion will get the Best Picture nomination denied to the first film.
