Academy Award-nominated actor Paul Giamatti (Sideways, Cinderella Man, Billions) has thrown his hat in the ring to be cast in director Rian Johnson’s next installment of Knives Out, a Benoit Blanc Mystery. This isn’t out of the question, considering the first two films had incredible ensemble casts that I could see Giamatti fitting right into. Speaking with Josh Horowitz on the Happy Sad Confused podcast (via ComicBook), Giamatti talked about his love of the mystery genre, which has become popular again in the last few years. “There’s been this really great revival of the kind of like specifically Agatha Christie, but the kind of like drawing room murder stuff. I love stuff like that and I think that it’s great that people are making stuff like that again – like Knives Out and all the Agatha Christie stuff. And I feel like the kids these days are digging that stuff. [Laughs] … Knives Out 3… I would like to do something like that. It would be fun to play a detective like that – or just somebody in that movie. That kind of world I love, that whole thing.”I could totally see his bid leading to a role in the next film, if word gets back to Rian Johnson. I look forward to seeing who else will end up in the cast as well. Who would you like to see in Knives Out 3?
