    After Netflix shelled out a truly impressive (and hotly debated) amount for two Rian Johnson “Knives Out” sequels, it totally makes sense that the cast would get some new blood. New only in that these two (so far) actors were not in the first film.

    Yesterday, it was revealed that Dave Bautista (“Blade Runner 2049,” “Guardians of the Galaxy“) had joined the cast.

    This morning, Edward Norton (“Red Dragon,” “The Incredible Hulk“) was also confirmed to be joining the sequel.

    We don’t know much about this sequel yet, other than Daniel Craig‘s return as Detective Benoit Blanc.

    As originally reported, Netflix [possibly] paid upwards of $400 million for two more “Knives Out” films.

    We’ll let you know what else we hear about this whodunnit continuation.

    Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
