Janelle Monae has been cast in ‘KNIVES OUT 2’.

Janelle Monae is the latest A-lister to be enlisted for the Knives Out sequel. She is in talks to join what will be a starry ensemble for the Rian Johnson-directed whodunit, which has Edward Norton and Dave Bautista circling roles. The original Knives Out starred Chris Evans, Jamie Lee Curtis, Christopher Plummer, Michael Shannon, and Toni Collette. Plot details are being kept under wraps but the follow-up will be another star-studded murder mystery anchored by Daniel Craig’s enigmatic southern detective Benoit Blanc. (Via The Hollywood reporter)
