Previously, Johnson told The Atlantic that he resented the A Knives Out Mystery tag for the films’ titles, instead hoping that each installment could be appreciated as its own feature. "Honestly, I’m pissed off that we have ‘A Knives Out Mystery’ in the title. You know? I want it to just be called ‘Glass Onion.’ I get it, and I want everyone who liked the first movie to know this is next in the series, but also, the whole appeal to me is it’s a new novel off the shelf every time. But there’s a gravity of a thousand suns toward serialized storytelling," he explained.
