The Cast For "Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery" Is Stacked

Monáe plays Cassandra "Andi" Brand, Miles's former business partner. She and Miles are the center of the group of friends that gather in the film. "Andi's a leader. A gatherer. Very wealthy," she told Deadline of her character. She told the outlet she wanted to work with Johnson as soon as she saw his 2012 movie "Looper." "I was like, 'Rian is doing something super-innovative in the sci-fi genre, and if I ever get an opportunity to work with him, I don't care what it is, I'm saying yes,'" she recalled. Once she read the "Glass Onion" script, she was in.
