how many knives out movies will there be
There are currently three Knives Out movies planned in the main Benoit Blanc series, but the door is very much open for more in the future.
Current and planned movies
- Released so far :
- Knives Out (2019)
* _Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery_ (2022)
- Third movie :
- Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery is the third Benoit Blanc film, completing the initial set of three.
So how many will there be?
- Netflix originally bought rights to two sequels to the first film, which takes the series to three movies total under that deal.
- Writer-director Rian Johnson has said he wants to keep making Benoit Blanc mysteries as long as he and Daniel Craig are enjoying it, so the series is designed to continue beyond three if the movies stay successful.
Future possibilities
- As of now, nothing beyond the third movie has been officially locked in, so only three are guaranteed. Anything after that is potential, not confirmed.
- Johnson has hinted at brainstorming ideas for a possible fourth film, which suggests the franchise could grow, but fans should treat that as “likely but unconfirmed” for now.
TL;DR: Under current deals, there will be three confirmed Knives Out movies, with strong chances of more later if the third one continues the franchise’s success.
