The sequel to 2019’s hit movie Knives Out added another big name to its growing ensemble cast. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the latest high-profile name to join the project is Academy Award-nominee Leslie Odom Jr.

Knives Out 2 will see Rian Johnson writing and directing once again while Daniel Craig is set to return in the role of detective Benoit Blanc. Previously added cast members include Dave Bautista, Edward Norton, Janelle Monáe, and Kathryn Hahn.

The plot of the sequel is being kept under wraps, but moviegoers can expect another murder mystery that will keep them on their toes until the very end. The latest reports say that the movie will begin filming this summer in Greece. 

Even before Knives Out was released, Johnson said that he already has an idea for the sequel and would like to create a franchise centered on detective Blanc. It became clear that this is a real possibility once the movie earned universal acclaim from the critics while earning $311 million at the box office.

Then in March 2021, streaming service giant Netflix announced that they had purchased the rights for not one but two Knives Out sequels. Reportedly, the deal was worth more than $400 million and came with several clauses. This included Daniel Craig staying in the same role and budget of the sequels having the same or bigger budget as the original.

Daniel Craig announces he’s done with James Bond… again. 

This time it was Stephen Colbert who, during Friday night’s The Late Show With Stephen Colbert, asked the actor if after No Time to Die he was “done with Bond” to which Craig replied “Yes” and “It’s done.”

This isn’t the first time Craig confirmed that he’s over his 007 role. 

Back in 2015, that’s before he joined the upcoming franchise film No Time to Die, when he was asked about doing another James Bond movie, he said, “No, not at the moment. Not at all. That’s fine. I’m over it at the moment. We’re done. All I want to do is move on.”

Craig’s next 007 adventure will be the 25th installment of the British spy series, No Time to Die. He took over the role of Ian Fleming’s suave spy from Pierce Brosnan in 2005, making him the sixth actor to play Bond in the eponymous franchise. 

No Time to Die is set to hit theaters on April 8, 2020.

The creative team behind the new James Bond movie had to deal with a lot of setbacks along the way, but they managed to overcome them all and finish this highly-anticipated project which finally has a title and a release date.

The twenty-fifth installment in the beloved franchise will be titled No Time to Die, and it’s coming to theaters in the UK on April 3rd, 2020. Cary Joji Fukunaga directed the movie and co-wrote the script alongside Scott Z. Burns and Phoebe Waller-Bridge.

No Time to Die sees Bond leaving the active service and enjoying his peace of mind in Jamaica, only to return to the eye of the storm after an old friend asks him to help him defeat a mysterious villain armed with dangerous new technology.

This film will see Daniel Craig returning to the role of James Bond, but insiders close to the production team claim we’ll get to see Lashana Lynch taking on the role of Agent 007. The cast also includes Rami Malek, Christoph Waltz, Ben Whishaw, Lea Seydoux and Naomie Harris.

Ever wanted to watch Captain America and James Bond solve a murder mystery together? Rian Johnson is here to make your dream come true as he just cast Marvel actor Chris Evans in his upcoming crime drama Knives Out.

This exciting project tells the story of a detective trying to solve a modern murder mystery in a classic whodunit style. Daniel Craig was cast in the lead role after his scheduled cleared up because filming of Bond 25 was delayed.

Chris Evans is the first supporting player to join him, and the news of his casting comes shortly after his retirement from the MCU became official. He recently wrapped up filming Avengers 4, and bid farewell to his most iconic character in an emotional tweet. Evans said playing Captain America for the past eight years had been an honor and thanked everyone for amazing memories.

Knives Out isn’t the only promising project Evans will be working on after taking off his superhero costume. He recently landed first major TV role in Defending Jacob, the tale of renowned district attorney whose son has been accused of murder. The Marvel star will also play the lead in the gritty indie The Devil All the Time, disaster thriller Greenland and modern-day retelling of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.

Despite fans speculations, according to the series’ executive producer, James Bond will “probably” never be played by a female actress. 

Social media has been buzzing with fans guessing who will take over the lead in the Bond franchise after Daniel Craig’s expected departure. While some suggested various actors to take over the iconic character, like Idris Elba, some thought it was time a woman starred as the suave spy.

But the idea of a gender switch is off the table according to producer Barbara Broccoli, who told the Guardian that the change the production will go in that creative direction is very unlikely. 

“Bond is male. He’s a male character. He was written as a male and I think he’ll probably stay as a male,” she told the outlet. “And that’s fine. We don’t have to turn male characters into women,” she added. “Let’s just create more female characters and make the story fit those female characters.” Finally, she added that the Bond character had in fact “transformed with the times”. “I’ve tried to do my part, and I think particularly with the Daniel [Craig] films, they’ve become much more current in terms of the way women are viewed.”

The next installment helmed by Fukunaga and starring Craig is scheduled to hit theaters on February 14, 2020.

The mystery is finally over — it’s a girl!

Congratulations to Rachel Weisz and Daniel Craig who welcomed their first child together earlier this month. 

The 48-year-old actress announced the pregnancy in April, telling The New York Times, “Daniel and I are so happy. We’re going to have a little human. We can’t wait to meet him or her. It’s all such a mystery.”

The two got married in 2011 in an intimate NYC ceremony, where they also currently live. Weisz already has an 11-year-0ld son with Darren Aronofsy and Craign has a 25-year-old daughter Ella with actress Fiona Loudon.

According to sources close to the coulee, Weisz and Craig are “very happy” with their new bundle of joy. The three were even seen for the first time since the birth on Wednesday in New York. The two doting parents carried their baby girl around the Big Apple in a baby carrier, while sporting casual looks — Weisz looked fabulous in a nude Burberry trench coat over a white shirt, slouchy T-shirt and leggings, while Craig opted for a grey T-shirt, indigo jeans and a basketball cap.

Congrats, you two!

The Last Jedi director Rian Johnson is going back to his murder mystery roots, and he’s taking Daniel Craig for a ride. The latest Bond will take a little break from playing 007 to star in Johnson’s next project called Knives Out.

This contemporary murder mystery follows a detective played by Craig, who’s trying to solve a violent crime. Sounds like dozens of movies we’ve already seen before, but the creative team behind it will certainly be able to come up with something ground-breaking

Johnson will produce the film with his frequent collaborator Ram Bergman. He wrote the original screenplay over the summer but had a hard time thinking of anyone who would be perfect for the lead role.

Johnson has been a huge fan of Daniel Craig for years but knew his schedule was already pretty busy. Everything changed after Danny Boyle suddenly left the director’s chair of Bond 25. Production of this project has been delayed after his departure, and the lead actor finally had some free time on his hands.

“We heard Daniel might have a small window, and it worked out. He’s an actor of extraordinary range, and we are looking forward to the fun of finding that modern detective and collaborating with Daniel on creating a new Poirot,” explained Johnson.

Evans said playing Captain America for the past eight years had been an honor and thanked everyone for amazing memories.

Knives Out isn’t the only promising project Evans will be working on after taking off his superhero costume. He recently landed first major TV role in Defending Jacob, the tale of renowned district attorney whose son has been accused of murder. The Marvel star will also play the lead in the gritty indie The Devil All the Time, disaster thriller Greenland and modern-day retelling of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.

Despite fans speculations, according to the series’ executive producer, James Bond will “probably” never be played by a female actress. 

Social media has been buzzing with fans guessing who will take over the lead in the Bond franchise after Daniel Craig’s expected departure. While some suggested various actors to take over the iconic character, like Idris Elba, some thought it was time a woman starred as the suave spy.

But the idea of a gender switch is off the table according to producer Barbara Broccoli, who told the Guardian that the change the production will go in that creative direction is very unlikely. 

“Bond is male. He’s a male character. He was written as a male and I think he’ll probably stay as a male,” she told the outlet. “And that’s fine. We don’t have to turn male characters into women,” she added. “Let’s just create more female characters and make the story fit those female characters.” Finally, she added that the Bond character had in fact “transformed with the times”. “I’ve tried to do my part, and I think particularly with the Daniel [Craig] films, they’ve become much more current in terms of the way women are viewed.”

The next installment helmed by Fukunaga and starring Craig is scheduled to hit theaters on February 14, 2020.

The mystery is finally over — it’s a girl!

Congratulations to Rachel Weisz and Daniel Craig who welcomed their first child together earlier this month. 

The 48-year-old actress announced the pregnancy in April, telling The New York Times, “Daniel and I are so happy. We’re going to have a little human. We can’t wait to meet him or her. It’s all such a mystery.”

The two got married in 2011 in an intimate NYC ceremony, where they also currently live. Weisz already has an 11-year-0ld son with Darren Aronofsy and Craign has a 25-year-old daughter Ella with actress Fiona Loudon.

According to sources close to the coulee, Weisz and Craig are “very happy” with their new bundle of joy. The three were even seen for the first time since the birth on Wednesday in New York. The two doting parents carried their baby girl around the Big Apple in a baby carrier, while sporting casual looks — Weisz looked fabulous in a nude Burberry trench coat over a white shirt, slouchy T-shirt and leggings, while Craig opted for a grey T-shirt, indigo jeans and a basketball cap.

Congrats, you two!

The Last Jedi director Rian Johnson is going back to his murder mystery roots, and he’s taking Daniel Craig for a ride. The latest Bond will take a little break from playing 007 to star in Johnson’s next project called Knives Out.

This contemporary murder mystery follows a detective played by Craig, who’s trying to solve a violent crime. Sounds like dozens of movies we’ve already seen before, but the creative team behind it will certainly be able to come up with something ground-breaking

Johnson will produce the film with his frequent collaborator Ram Bergman. He wrote the original screenplay over the summer but had a hard time thinking of anyone who would be perfect for the lead role.

Johnson has been a huge fan of Daniel Craig for years but knew his schedule was already pretty busy. Everything changed after Danny Boyle suddenly left the director’s chair of Bond 25. Production of this project has been delayed after his departure, and the lead actor finally had some free time on his hands.

“We heard Daniel might have a small window, and it worked out. He’s an actor of extraordinary range, and we are looking forward to the fun of finding that modern detective and collaborating with Daniel on creating a new Poirot,” explained Johnson.
