Daniel Craig doesn’t think Benoit Blanc needs an origin story

audiovisual industry has an almost obsessive fixation on saving the history of cinema from the past (see the success story of Top gun: Maverick), but also with remakes and prequels. A trend that seems to be driving almost everything to become a franchise, which some may find unnecessary. The last phenomenon was daggers in the back, the sequel of which will premiere exclusively on Netflix tomorrow. The streaming giant is already planning a third part with filmmaker Rian Johnson and Daniel Craig plays detective benoît blanc. However, according to former secret agent 007, this heir to Agatha Christie’s top investigators doesn’t need an origin story.

“I think it’s important (that he just show up),” Craig told Josh Horowitz on the podcast. happy sad confused🇧🇷 How could it be otherwise, he compared it to Christie’s work and the protagonists’ relationship with history. In all cases (and Johnson understands this very well) the relevant case is: “When I saw Peter Ustinov play Hercule Poirot, he showed up somewhere, solved the case and went somewhere else. This secret is important. He is not the center of attention. What makes Rian so brilliant, she delivers so brilliantly that we have other people around us what we want to see. Benoit is tasked with discussing them. It must be a mystery. I don’t need to know what I did when I was 12. I’m glad people are just doing their lives right, I’m fine.”

I have to thank Rian for trusting me. I read the script for Punales in the background and laughed out loud and here we are with the sequel: modern.
