Nobody (2021) Trivia Questions & Answers
Here are the correct answers to each trivia question, with detailed explanations highlighting the action, mystery, and unexpected humor of Nobody (2021):
1) Who plays the lead role of Hutch Mansell in Nobody (2021)?
Correct Answer: Bob Odenkirk
Best known for his role as Saul Goodman in Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, Bob Odenkirk takes a sharp turn into action territory as Hutch Mansell. His performance brings both depth and brutal intensity to a character with a dark, buried past.
2) What is Hutch’s profession at the start of the film?
Correct Answer: Factory manager
At the beginning of the movie, Hutch leads a mundane life as a factory manager. His routine is intentionally bland — missed trash day, disconnected marriage — all part of the setup for the explosive reveal of his violent former identity.
3) What causes Hutch to finally snap and return to his violent past?
Correct Answer: His daughter’s missing kitty bracelet
The turning point is deceptively small: his daughter’s missing kitty cat bracelet, possibly stolen during a home invasion. This minor detail becomes the trigger for Hutch’s reawakening and sets off a chain of brutal confrontations.
4) What object does Hutch take with him on the bus before fighting the thugs?
Correct Answer: A metal pipe
When Hutch boards the bus and confronts a group of violent punks, he arms himself with a metal pipe — and proceeds to unleash a surprisingly raw, unpolished fight that reintroduces the audience to his deadly skillset.
5) What organization did Hutch previously work for?
Correct Answer: A secret government agency
Hutch was an “auditor” — an elite operative who worked for unspecified government forces. When someone was deemed too dangerous to live or prosecute, Hutch was the one sent to eliminate them. He left that life for family, but violence still calls.
6) Who is the main Russian antagonist in the film?
Correct Answer: Yulian Kuznetsov
Yulian is a flamboyant and violent Russian mobster who becomes Hutch’s main adversary after the bus fight inadvertently leads to the death of his relative. Their conflict escalates into a full-blown war, with Yulian underestimating Hutch until it’s far too late.
7) What does Hutch use to booby-trap the warehouse for the final showdown?
Correct Answer: Industrial machines and explosives
In true Home Alone-meets-John Wick fashion, Hutch turns his workplace — a metal fabrication plant — into a trap-laden death maze. Welding machines, rebar, tripwires, and explosives become his arsenal against an army of mobsters.
8) What classic song plays during the bus fight scene?
Correct Answer: “I’ve Gotta Be Me” by Steve Lawrence
The ironic use of this upbeat crooner classic contrasts hilariously with the brutal bus beatdown. This kind of musical juxtaposition is a signature touch of the film, adding dark humor to otherwise violent sequences.
9) Who joins Hutch in the final battle to help him fight off the Russians?
Correct Answer: His father and brother
In a thrilling reveal, Hutch is joined by his shotgun-wielding father David (played by Christopher Lloyd) and his sniper brother Harry (RZA). Together, the family delivers a three-man war against the Russian forces, blending humor with heavy firepower.
10) What final line suggests Hutch is still tied to his old life?
Correct Answer: “Do you have a basement?”
As Hutch and his wife shop for a new house at the end of the film, this ominous question to the realtor hints that he might not be done with the violence after all. The line mirrors the film’s opening, creating a full-circle moment laced with foreshadowing.
