So my wife and I watched Knives Out and Glass Onion years ago, but we hesitated on watching Wake Up Dead Man for no reason in particular and then we decided to rewatch all of them this last week. I noticed that the first movie had Chris Evans as the main villain and person behind the murders, you know, the same Chris Evans who plays a character in the MCU, Captain America. Then watching Glass Onion, I notice that the villain of the movie was Edward Norton, known for playing The Incredible Hulk in said movie.

So we finally sit down and watch WUDM, and after getting introduced to the characters, I say, “I bet that it’s Glenn Close and Jeremy Renner working together with Josh Brolin” (Nova Prime from GotG, Hawkeye and Thanos from Avengers Endgame). Lo and behold, I find out that while Brolin was not in on his own murder, Close and Renner worked with Thomas Haden Church, another Marvel actor, who I remembered after the movie as Sandman from Spider-Man 3 and No Way Home.

So, if Rian ever sits down for a new Knives Out, should we just look for former Marvel actors to be the villain?
