Knives Out was a revelation upon it’s release. Rian Johnson’s murder mystery masterpiece showed the whole world how talented the director truly is. Now according to Deadline, Dave Bautista is joining the sequel. Netflix recently added the rights to the second and third film in the series. Johnson is writing and directing both sequels. Daniel Craig is also reprising his role of detective Benoit Blanc.
