Before the release of Knives Out, director Rian Johnson mentioned the possibility of a sequel.

At an auction in March 2021, Netflix outbid several studios to purchase the rights to two sequels to Knives Out for $469 million. 

Now, Variety has gained knowledge that “[Rian] Johnson’s hotly-anticipated sequel is expected to release in theaters and the streaming platform in the last quarter of 2022.” More details have arisen regarding the sequel. “In addition, the film is expected to also make a festival run before its release,” Variety says. “Although it’s unknown which ones it’s expected to debut at. With this added layer, we can expect the sequel to be a possible awards hopeful for Netflix next year.”
