Glass Onion: Edward Norton & Janelle Monáe on Rian Johnson's Script
140In 2019, writer and director Rian Johnson wowed audiences with his star-studded whodunnit, Knives Out, starring Daniel Craig as the southern aristocratic Detective Benoit Blanc, earning the filmmaker his first Oscar nomination for Best Original Screenplay. Now, the duo return in an all-new modern mystery, Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, that features an entirely different ensemble cast tasked with solving a puzzling faux murder. That is, until someone does, in fact, wind up dead. When tech billionaire Miles Bron (played by Edward Norton) invites his merry band of wealthy friends to his Greek island, Benoit Blanc returns to get to the bottom of this peculiar puzzle. The list of suspects ranges from Bron’s former business partner Andi Brand (Janelle Monáe) to his invited guests, including Kate Hudson, Dave Bautista, Kathryn Hahn, and Leslie Odom Jr.
Ahead of the theatrical release on November 23, Collider’s Steve Weintraub got to sit down with Norton and Monáe to talk about Glass Onion. During the interview, they discuss their reactions to getting that call from Johnson, the laugh-out-loud script, and working closely with the cast during the pandemic in Greece. They also share their experience working with Johnson as a director, as well as a few of those funny moments – no spoilers!
