Jordan Peele

Ever since the release of 2017’s Get Out, Jordan Peele’s imaginative, poignant and fresh storytelling has provided the horror genre with a much-needed dose of excitement. From the racial commentary of Get Out, to the Twilight Zone-inspired Us, and the sci-fi twist on society’s need for attention with Nope, Peele continues to find ways to make his releases a must-see for film fans. In 2022, Nope became Peele’s third number-one opening in a row at $44 million and the third film in his filmography to cross the $100 million threshold for box office gross. The writer/director also launched his first fictional audio series produced by his production company, Monkeypaw Productions, and Spotify’s Gimlet Media, named “Quiet Part Loud.” Peele re-teamed with his longtime comedy writing partner Keegan-Michael Key this year as well to voice the main characters in Netflix’s Wendell and Wild.
