Jordan Peele announces "Us" (coming March 2019)
- Thread starter Cheddahz
- Start date
Best acting in Black Panther, very memorable in Person of Interest, and highly underrated in general. Looking forward to his rise.
I had no idea Winston Duke was Dominic from Person of Interest. Holy hell what a role that was.
Since like the 90s bruh. You probably have and just didn't recognize her.
The One I Love is an interesting romance/"fantasy?".
Mad Men is one of the best TV shows of all-time, peak of drama. I dream of making a character drama that good.
Her whole arc in that show is fantastic and she has some killer scenes in it. Do yourself a favor and watch it, every episode is on Netflix.
I liked Winston Duke on his short run on Person of Interest. I think he's gonna have a great career.
YEAH! Can't wait! Get Out was my favorite movie of 2017 and can't wait to see a new film form Jordan Peele!
I'll never forget him and Key appearing in Weird Al's "White and Nerdy" video way before their own show, they good people.
Damn, day one.
Wait, it's not called The Handmaidens Tale? Lol, I've been calling it that all the time.
Handmaid makes so much more sense now that I think about it.

That trio is such a great cast and Peele might be the most promising new filmmaker around so this is super exciting.
Let's let him get more than 1 hit under his belt before we anoint him.
Was going to say...could easily be lightning in a bottle. I hope it isn't and I'm excited to see what he makes. But there are countless directors who create masterpieces and never make something close to it again. It's the same with bands who can never come close to their first album. I didn't expect him to make another horror right away tbh.
Honestly there are but a handful of directors who you can bet your house on their film not only being good, but essentially a masterpiece. If you put a gun to my head the only "mainstream/western" director I can well and truly vouch for is Paul Thomas Anderson.
Personally going down the horror path seems like a quick path to retreading yourself and the entire genre (witness the poster that looks like every other horror poster in its aesthetics) but he's also only two films in so who knows.
I think the sketch comedy stuff showed that Key and Peele could pull off plenty of genres without much difficulty.
In terms of HOT black directors, it's Peele, Coogler, DuVernay, and of course Perry.
One hit is all it takes for them to be on our radar since there are so few of them.
Not even gonna list the best ones? Barry Jenkins and especially Steve McQueen are great.
Oh no doubt but like I'm saying Peele has 1 movie. At this point I'd put Coogler above him.
