Fans almost immediately noticed that Glass Onion was filmed in Greece, where another iconic film franchise takes place: Mamma Mia. Some fans went as far as to suggest a crossover between the two.

For those unfamiliar with Star Wars, before Rian Johnson did Knives Out, he directed a little-known film called The Last Jedi, which was the second installment in the sequel series of films starring John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, and Adam Driver.
