Yahoo Finance Marvel star Kathryn Hahn shares her favourite thing about Knives Out 2
WandaVision icon Kathryn Hahn has opened up about joining Knives Out 2, revealing that there's one aspect of Rian Johnson's whodunnit caper that she's "really turned on by".
Kathryn, who charmed Marvel fans as Agatha Harkness in the Disney+ series, was confirmed for Knives Out 2 earlier this year – and it sounds like she's just as excited as fans are to be a part of the upcoming sequel.
With production for the movie now under way in Greece, Kathryn spoke to Nylon about why she joined the project, citing the "ensemble" of the 2019 murder mystery.

"Well, I love the ensemble of the first one," she admitted. "I was really turned on by, A) Rian Johnson's filmmaking, B) that he has an impeccable reputation as one of the nicest humans, and C) the ensemble."
Explaining that she felt like "every character" had equal value – and equal amounts of fun – in Knives Out, Kathryn added: "It just looked like every character was so specific and that it seemed to be a lot of equal ball-passing in a really fun way.
"It just looked like a blast to be on the set because it looked like there was no ball-hogging – just everybody passing the ball to each other with such generosity."

"It's a really delightful, beautiful ensemble."
