“Glass Onion,” like “Knives Out,” is being produced and directed by Rian Johnson from his own script. The film once again reunites him with his trusty cinematographer Steve Yedlin, with “Knives Out” composer Nathan Johnson also back to provide the movie’s score.

So far as we know (pending a surprise Ana de Armas cameo), Daniel Craig is the only “Knives Out” actor returning for “Glass Onion.” Whether he will still have his 100 percent convincing Southern accent when he does is a mystery that only time can solve … but most likely (although I’m still holding out hope Craig will don an entirely different accent for the sequel that no one ever comments on).

The rest of the “Glass Onion” cast is as star-studded as the supporting ensemble for “Knives Out.” Indeed, its ranks include such famous faces as Dave Bautista (“Army of the Dead”), Janelle Monáe (“Hidden Figures”), Edward Norton (“Birdman”), Kathryn Hahn (“WandaVision”), and Leslie Odom Jr. (“One Night in Miami”), as well as Jessica Henwick (“The Matrix Resurrections”), Kate Hudson (“Marshall”), Ethan Hawke (“Moon Knight”), and Madelyn Cline (“Outer Banks”). But is there a killer among their ranks, that’s the real question. I’m watching you closely, Mr. Hawke.
