There's plenty of hype bubbling up for Knives Out 2, which is probably a good idea since Netflix doled out a reported $400 million USD for two sequels to Rian Johnson's hit movie. The casting has begun for the movie, and today's big announcement adds some musical flare.

Performer Janelle Monáe is the latest addition to the cast, following announcements that Edward Norton and Dave Bautista were signing on. 

Though she's obviously best known for her impressive music career, Monáe is also an accomplished actor in her own right, having starred in films like Moonlight and Antebellum

Knives Out 2 will begin filming this summer in Greece, and of course, it also will feature the return of Daniel Craig.
