Also, Craig has already been confirmed to reprise his role as the super detective Benoit Blanc.
With each casting announcement, the $450 million deal Netflix closed last month for the next two installments of Knives Out seems to be paying off as stars continue to flock to the sequel.

Production is still set to begin this summer with a filming location in Greece.
As far as Hahn, she’s been relatively busy. She’s coming off the massive success of Marvel’s WandaVision, in which she played a nosy neighbor secret witch who ended up getting her own theme song, ‘Agatha All Along’, which is still stuck in the minds of viewers. Hahn has also starred alongside fellow MCU alum Mark Ruffalo in the HBO limited series I Know This Much Is True. Her next project is the Apple series The Shrink Next Door, which reunites her with Step Brothers co-star Will Ferrell and yet another MCU alum, Paul Rudd.
