Benoit Blanc (and Philip) Headcannons
If they were both on vacation and a ‘busman’s holiday’ happened (aka a murder or other sort of investigation needed) Philip would actually be the most enthusiastic for Benoit to join in, because he’s seen what his husband is like when he goes long stretches without a case.
Word of god (aka the author) has it that Benoit can’t afford his apartment [on his own; I blame the cost of living, and honestly Benoit’s clothing tastes cannot be cheap] and it’s heavily implied that he’s a hobbyist that is more than willing to do charity cases because he cares about the people and justice. So that puts significant weight on the ‘Philip is the biggest breadwinner of the two’ theory (fitting that his quarantine crazy project was literally making bread). TL;DR: Philip is a sugar daddy to Benoit.
Philip is actually more famous than his husband in some circles (possibly the world of finance or fashion?) and Benoit doesn’t mind at all. (Frankly Benoit would be happier if his name wasn’t the first Google result for ‘Worlds greatest detective’)
Marta and Helen are now honorary daughters to the Benoit and Philip, this headcannon is so popular I choose to believe it is just full bonafide canon.

I hope to god that Philip and Benoit had the "Frozone and his wife super suit" argument of some kind.
B: I have a murder to solve!
P: you will have two if we miss the play!

Ok now gimme a sickfic set after glass onion with Benoit coming down with a mild case of covid because Miles' throat spray was bogus and Birdie had superspreader written all over her. Bonus if Benoit is extra whiny to Philip even though he's literally just got the sniffles

Philip calling Benoit by his last name... is something that means so much to me

I may not have seen Glass Onion yet, but I think I've absorbed enough through Tumblr osmosis to think I know that Daniel Craig has Hugh Grant as a husband, and now I'm just envisioning the character doing a rendition of the horrible (affectionate) dance scene from Love Actually while baking bread. I pray that this holds accurate whenever I get around to watching the film.

So who is Phillip? Husband? Watson? Maid? Roommate?
(This aren't mutually exclusive, by the way)

Since it’s been established that Philip, Benoit Blanca’s husband, is the breadwinner and that Benoit is mostly doing the private investigator thing as a hobby he occasionally accepts payment from… I thought it would be fun to gather people’s thoughts on what they think Philips job is.
Okay votes via reblogs, what do you think is the most likely job for our boy Philip?
Zero: He inherited all his money from his parents or otherwise won it a massive lottery or he stumbled across a buried pirate treasure.
Professor (University level) or perhaps a Dean of a University.
[Retired Jewel thief] (Robin Hood style, rob from the rich and give to the poor)
Stock trading or investment (like a small business investor)
Famous Actor or some other form of celebrity (possibly even more famous than Benoit?)
Fashion designer/Photographer/ Famous artist
High-end tailor
Professional poker player (or any other skill based gambling)
Professional sport of some description (darts, pool, frisbee etc.)
Other [please specify in your Reblog]

Guys please. Benoit Blanc wasn’t “hinted at” being gay in Glass Onion. He IS gay. CANONICALLY. Even if Rian Johnson didn’t confirm that Hugh Grant is in a romantic relationship with Blanc, if it was a woman answering the door, everyone would just assume that was his girlfriend or wife or smth.
This isn’t something that’s ever gonna be explored bc the movies aren’t about his identity. They’re barely about Blanc. He’s just the world’s greatest detective, and he just so happens to be gay.

I would’ve loved to see the in-universe news reports after the events of Glass Onion. Imagine someone having to put out to the public “Tonight’s top story, idiot billionaire Miles Bron uses experimental energy source to blow up own home, taking with it arguably the most famous painting of all time. At the same event noted streamer and misogynist Duke Whatshisname was allegedly murdered, although according to our sources this was not related to the explosion. All surviving members of the incident have contracted covid and experts are saying this whole case could be tied up in the courts for years based purely on how ridiculous it all is. Celebrated detective Benoit Blanc weighs in.*”
*From home, because he also has covid.

“Blanc.” “...” “..Blanc?”
“...”
“The bread wasn’t that bad, was it?” “...”
“Come on, we’ll start that jigsaw I ordered.” “...” -sigh- “...” “Alright... It’s alright. We’ll just sit here a bit longer.”

For a character that is not trying to be an adaptation of Sherlock Holmes, Benoit Blanc is the best modern Holmes.
They both hate rich people, don't deal well with men in power, have a soft spot for women who have been taken advantage of, useless with simple and silly things, get depressed when they don't have a case, gay.
