Glenn Close: A Puppy on the 'Knives Out' Set
26 Nov
Summary
- Glenn Close brought infectious, puppy-like energy to the 'Knives Out' set.
- She stayed on set after her scenes to observe fellow actors.
- The cast bonded over games and shared snacks during filming.
Director Rian Johnson revealed that eight-time Oscar nominee Glenn Close brought an infectious, "puppy-like" energy to the set of "Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery." Despite her legendary career, Johnson found Close to be incredibly enthusiastic and eager to work. Her dedication was so profound that she would often stay on set to observe and learn from her co-stars, even after her own scenes had wrapped.
Close plays Martha Delacroix, a fiercely loyal church manager, in the third installment of the popular mystery franchise starring Daniel Craig. The film's plot involves the murder of a monsignor during an Easter service, with a normally mild-mannered reverend emerging as the prime suspect. Benoit Blanc, the eccentric detective, is once again on the case to uncover the truth.
Beyond the on-set dynamics, Close recalled a strong sense of camaraderie among the large ensemble cast. She shared anecdotes about the cast gathering for tea, coffee, and snacks, playing backgammon, and sharing laughs. This sense of community fostered a positive and collaborative environment during the filming of the latest "Knives Out" mystery.
