Jordan Peele’s New Movie May Star Jesse Plemons & Daniel Kaluuya

Get Out and Us writer-director Jordan Peele is working on a new project. And today we hear Jesse Plemons (Breaking Bad, Fargo, Black Mirror) and also Daniel Kaluuya (Get Out, Black Panther) have each been offered the lead roles. See below.

The Illuminerdi also reported some character details. Check them out below.

Artie is a lead, Latinx, or Native American man in his 20s to early 30s. An L.A. native, he works in the electronics department of a major retail store. He’s is genuine, insightful, and “clutch”.

Winston Claes is a supporting character 55-70, with open ethnicity. Winston is a Fine Art Photographer whose career-long obsession for perfection has led him to the edge of a dull and unsatisfying end to his career. He radiates succinct weather-beaten insight of a lovably gruff unwilling mentor. Winston, emotionally balanced, but his thinly veiled ego is his downfall.

All of this lines up with what Murphys Multiverse reported earlier: “The story will focus on a man between 20 to 32 old who lives on the outskirts of Los Angeles. He is a Walmart employee in the electronics section, who is described as perceptive, sincere, and “clutch”. [The filmmakers] are currently looking to cast someone either with a Latino or Native American background for the role.”

As you might imagine, story details are under wraps. But that said, we know Peele will direct, write and produce with Win Rosenfeld, Ian Cooper, and Peter Graf. Universal Pictures and Peele’s Monkeypaw Productions are behind the scenes.

The movie kicks off filming in Los Angeles in April. Universal will unleash the film on July 22, 2022. We’ll see about that. Either way, stay tuned.
