Director Rian Johnson confirmed a few pieces of info that fans might be excited to hear!
Firstly, if you saw Glass Onion, the second Knives Out film, you might remember a moment touting Jeremy Renner‘s “Renning Hot” habanero chili pepper sauce in the film. Well, fans wondered if Jeremy‘s addition to the cast meant that he would be playing himself as a hot sauce magnet.
“Jeremy’s a great actor who I’ve wanted to work with for a long time,” Rian told Netflix’s Tudum. “I was very relieved he thought the hot sauce thing was funny! He’s playing a proper part in this one, we’ll keep the sauce off screen. Maybe we’ll sneak a few bottles onto the catering table.”
About the cast, he added, “We’ve been very lucky with each of these movies to have gathered some of my favorite actors on the planet, and that’s absolutely the case here. They’re also all lovely folks who get along, which is the dinner party aspect of it. When you’re making an ensemble movie like this I think that’s key.”
