The Knives Out 3 cast is all anyone can talk about, with one fan revealing a wild theory for why Jeremy Renner might have joined the ensemble.
It’s a long way from making its debut on Netflix, butKnives Out 3has wasted no time whipping up a frenzy for its eventual release.
If you’ve been online at any point this week, you’ll have seen the seemingly endless run of casting announcements. Now, one fan has the “dumbest theory” on why Renner is involved.
“In Glass Onion, it’s shown that Jeremy Renner exists as himself in the Knives Out Universe,” the TikToker explains. “Earlier this year, it was shown that Renner clinically died for a brief period of time during his snow plow injury.”
“On top of that, the official title of the upcoming movie is Wake Up Dead Man. This leads me to believe that Knives Out 3 is going to be about Benoit Blanc investigating the attempted snow plow murder of Renner,” they continue.
While no plot points have been revealed forWake Up Dead Manyet, the theory does stack up. In Glass Onion, Renner is seen on a bottle of branded hot sauce, complete with the slogan, “Renning Hot!”
