Ruling out Daniel Craig
Let’s start with who the killer won’t be – Benoit Blanc (+600). Following the success of the original Knives Out, Netflix paid the film’s director Rian Johnson $400 million for two sequels. When developing the new film, Johnson told Entertainment Weekly, “If Daniel and I are going to keep making these, we don’t want to just spin our wheels.”
He added, “Benoit Blanc is the constant North Star of all of these movies. But you have to think of him as the detective, not as the central character. The story has to function in terms of the suspects, the murder, and the victim.” Both quotes suggest that Daniel Craig is essential to the franchise and will be back for the third installment.
Who’s the murderer?
One can surmise from the trailer above that Ed Norton’s character invites his friends to his pad for a fun murder mystery weekend before the lights go off and someone dies for the real. Oddsmakers have Miles Braun (+250) as the favorite, and they could certainly know something as a number of critics have already watched the movie. However, why would the tech billionaire invite his pals over just to kill one of them?
Plus, five of the nine main characters in Glass Onion are women. Given the murderer in Knives Out was a man, there’s a good chance a female is the killer in the sequel. It’s only fair, right ladies?

Best bet
Based entirely on nothing, we’re going with Birdie Jay as the murderer at +750. While it can certainly be Cassandra ‘Andi’ Brand (Janelle Monae) at +450 as well, we like rom-com vet Kate Hudson as the killer.
