Actors often go through months of rigourous training to prepare for movie roles. Even cameo appearances like Murder, She Wrote star Angela Lansbury’s in Glass Onion: A Knive’s Out Mystery can require some prep work. Director Rian Johsnon tried to teach the late actress to playAmong Usfor Benoit Blanc’s bath scene, and while she “couldn’t have been lovelier and more generous,” he also said she’s “not a gamer.“Speaking toThe New York Times(viaNME), Johnson said, “She was very patient in letting me describe the rules of Among Us, up to a point, [but eventually] she just said, ‘You know what? Just tell me what the lines are. I’ll trust you.’“RELATED:Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery Is The Perfect Movie For Our TimeThe Among Us scene in Glass Onion was like a time capsule back to the early days of the pandemic, when many of us were cooped up at home, some handling it better than others as shown by Benoit’s extended stay in his bathtub. The detective plays the game with Lansbury, Natasha Lyonne, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and the late Stephen Sondheim, butdespite the great company, hates the social deception game.As well as not liking Among Us, calling it a dumb game, Benoit Blanc also hates Clue, a game everyone assumes he’d be great at. He says the problem is he overintellectualises everything and so things that are just dumb seem to go over his head. It seems like everyone and their mum watched Glass Onion over the holidays, and people have already begun fancasting for the next film in the anthology series. Fellow games journalist Nathan Ellingsworth called for Matt Berry to appear in Knives Out 3 in a tweet that went viral. Director Rian Johnson replied, “It is a major life goal to work with this man.”
Matt Berry would be the perfect foil to Daniel Craig’s Benoit Blanc, or maybe he could also be a hapless helper or indignant suspect. The possibilities are endless, and all very fun.
