Hugh Grant's 'Glass Onion' Cameo Is a Win for the Gays (Decider)

(Spoiler alert: Stop reading now if you haven't yet seen the film!) Benoit Blanc is canonically married and/or in a long-term romantic relationship with Hugh ...

Helen clearly has caught Grant in the middle of baking—his face is covered in flour, he’s rocking a pink tie-dye apron, and he’s clutching a jar of brown sugar. “And there’s nobody in the world I can imagine in bringing me more joy for Benoit Blanc to be with.” But to me, this is the perfect amount of backstory for our cartoonish, investigative hero. But it’s not detective Blanc who answers the door, because Blanc is busy taking a bath and playing Among Us with his friends Angela Lansbury, Stephen Sondheim, Natasha Lyonne, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Benoit Blanc receives a knock on his door from a stranger named Helen (Janelle Monae), who is seeking his help to prove that her sister was murdered. [Glass Onion](https://decider.com/movie/glass-onion-a-knives-out-mystery/)—which is now streaming on [Netflix](https://www.netflix.com/title/81458416)—finally gave us just a hint of backstory for everyone’s favorite Southern detective.

And I feel like in general, if you think about Poirot, for example, I feel like getting glimpses of the detective’s life outside of the scope of the case is interesting. “And also, as I said at the LFF, who wouldn’t want to live with the human being that he happens to live with? “The less of a song and dance we make about that, the better, really, for me, because it just made sense,” he said. Also love how they got Ethan Hawke and Hugh Grant to appear in cameos, I think that’s hilarious,” a third [tweeted](https://twitter.com/inudens/status/1606249009219194881).
