After taking viewers into the Sunken Place in Get Out, Jordan Peele will explore another set of relationships in his next movie, Us.
The Hollywood Reporter reveals that Peele will direct Us from a screenplay that he wrote. While an official synopsis has yet to be released, the movie will reportedly follow "two couples, one white, one black." Winston Duke, Lupita Nyong’o and Elisabeth Moss are all eyeing co-starring roles as members of the two couples, although no deals have been finalized at this time.
Peele will also produce Us through his company Monkeypaw Productions, with Sean McKittrick, Jason Blum, and Monkeypaw’s Ian Cooper.
Us is already slated for a March 15th, 2019 release from Universal Pictures, and Peele revealed the teaser poster (see below) on his Twitter page. Further details are unknown at this time, but we'll keep Daily Dead readers updated as more information is revealed.
Raised on a steady diet of R.L. Stine’s Goosebumps books and Are You Afraid of the Dark?, Derek has been fascinated with fear since he first saw ForeverWare being used on an episode of Eerie, Indiana.
When he’s not writing about horror as the Senior News Reporter for Daily Dead, Derek can be found daydreaming about the Santa Carla Boardwalk from The Lost Boys or reading Stephen King and Brian Keene novels.
