The 92nd Academy Awards are taking place this Sunday, and one of the nominees this year is Rian Johnson. The director best known for helming Star Wars: The Last Jedi is nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay for Knives Out, his new whodunnit film. The movie has a star-studded cast, but the real breakout stars have been the film’s sweaters, especially the one worn by Chris Evans. The Knives Out sweater has been a big topic of discussion on social media, even sparking the #KnivesOutChallenge, which Johnson took part in on Twitter. Now, the challenge is back, but this time it’s been sanctioned by the official Twitter account for the film. The challenge is simple: just post a photo of yourself wearing a sweater!
