It’s right there in the title: 'Glass Onion' is a movie with layers. **Warning: Spoilers for “GlassOnionAKnivesOutMystery ahead. Do not read unless you want to know who dies and who the killer is**
Janelle Monáe and Daniel Craig in “Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery.”At first it appears that the mystery will revolve around the death of one of Bron’s guests, Duke Cody , who dies suddenly when he accidentally drinks pineapple juice, to which he is severely allergic. But it’s soon revealed that the woman the party attendees think is their old friend Andi is actually her twin sister, Helen, who is there to solve Andi’s recent, not-yet-public murder with the aid of master sleuth Blanc.
As for the challenge of playing two parts, Monáe said, “I used to think of them as two characters, Helen and Andi, but in talking with Rian I essentially was playing three characters: I was playing Helen and I was playing Andi and I was playing Helen pretending to be Andi. Rian even says, like, a fourth one. So I had to keep at least three to four different notebooks.”
“She has a voice that just sounded like power. You didn’t know where she was from. And she always thought that keeping her Alabama accent would make people think she wasn’t smart or that she was country. She was very insecure about that. But her sister Helen, who remained with her voice from northern Alabama, is absolutely smart. As you see who she is over the course of this film, both of them are brilliant within their own right, but one of them didn’t have to assimilate to prove that.
“Edward was so genius in the beginning, saying Miles Bron has never had his own idea in his life, he looks at everyone else for inspiration or exact copying,” Eagan said. “Imitation is his game. It’s all kind of those people he’s looking up to and he assumes that he can be. It’s so on the nose, so ridiculous: Who does this guy think he is?”
“It’s like you think that you’re so smart as the person watching it and you’re like, ‘How the hell did I miss that?’” Monáe said. “You want to keep replaying it just to make sure Rian’s not playing tricks on you. He’s playing tricks and he’s also being honest at the same time.” “It was a surprise for me too,” Monáe said. “It’s so funny, we were not in the same place shooting that, so essentially Hugh was probably talking to a stand-in and I was talking to, I think Rian was on the other side of that door.”
