Knives Out 3 will likely start filming this year, Deadline has reported.
The update was mentioned in an article posted on-site, focused on producer Katie McNeil, who has worked on titles such as Blue Valentine and The Zookeeper's Wife, joining Ram Bergman and Rian Johnson's independent studio T-Street. In recent months, the company has released the likes of Poker Face, Fair Play and American Fiction, the latter of which just received five Oscar nominations including Best Picture.
As expected, Johnson is set to write and direct the third Knives Out installment, which will once again see Daniel Craig's Benoit Blanc try to solve a head-scratchingly twisty whodunnit. We last saw the murderer-catching maestro flex his sleuthing chops in 2022's Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, where he and several others were invited to the secluded Greek island of tech billionaire Miles Bron (Edward Norton). When one of the guests winds up dead, Blanc must identify the killer before it's too late.
Considering the original Knives Out and Glass Onion came out three years apart, a 2024 shoot for the next chapter makes sense for the franchise's timeline, with Netflix and Johnson presumably eyeing a 2025 release.
"Our approach to movies is the same as when we made Brick. Find great people to work with who are both talented and nice to be around," said Johnson and Bergman in a statement. "Katie is that and more and we're so excited to welcome her to the team."
McNeill added: "I have been a fan of Rian and Ram's work since Brick, and I admire what they have built together. They have achieved an impressive body of work while also supporting some of the most inspiring filmmakers in the business. I am deeply grateful for the faith they have in me and I am honored to be joining their team."

In case you missed it, Microsoft made an industry-shaking acquisition at the tail end of last year, buying up Activision Blizzard King for an eye-watering $69 billion. It took a long time to close, though, because of intense scrutiny from a handful of different sources — one of those being the USA's Federal Trade Commission (FTC). Now, in the wake of Microsoft cutting thousands of jobs, the FTC is back on the company's case, accusing it of contradicting statements made in court about how the business would operate post-acquisition.

is widely revered as one of the most engaging and enveloping open-world experiences out there, but not every aspect of the game helps sell the immersion of the world. Although developer Rockstar Games isn't generally prone to imposing arbitrary limitations, with the series representing a gold standard for chaotic and amoral player freedom, does have slightly higher storytelling ideals than the no-holds-barred satire of A well-chosen sacrifice can be worthwhile, and it's easy to see the logic behind one restrictive decision in 's development.

Following Apple's announcement of enabling third-party app stores for iOS users in the European Union, Epic Games confirms that it'll be bringing Fortnite back to the iPhone and iPad in Europe later this year — by way of a new Epic mobile games store. This will mark the title's official return to Apple's platform since it was yanked back in August 2020, after Epic offered discounts to payments made directly to its own store, instead of Apple's App Store and Google Play which would take a 30-percent cut. iOS users have had to rely on Xbox Cloud Gaming or GeForce Now to play Fortnite, but this will soon be a thing of the past for those based in Europe.
