In an interview with People, Dave Bautista spoke about the upcoming sequel Knives Out and why he believes it will be superior to the original film. Bautista is a part of that film’s cast, along with Daniel Craig, Edward Norton, Janelle Monae, Kathryn Hahn, Leslie Odom Jr, Kate Hudson, Madelyn Cline, Jessica Henwick, Ethan Hawke and Jada Pinkett Smith. Here are highlights:

On what he thinks of the sequel: “I really think it’s going to be as good, if not better, than the first one. I’m always afraid to say that because I don’t want anybody to get offended saying that we’re going to be better, but I really do think this. I think the characters are just so much more colorful. I think people are really going to dig this.”

On the cast of characters in the film: “The characters are just so great. They’re so different. Everybody’s cast so well. I was working with a couple of my castmates and was mesmerized by their performances and just how well they’ve adapted into these characters. I think the characters in this are even more quirky than the first one.”
