Jazz Tangcay Artisans EditorWhen director Jordan Peele was in discussions about his box office hit “Nope,” he knew one thing: He wanted the film to be a vast spectacle. His first step was calling on cinematographer Hoyte van Hoytema to work with him on what he calls “my most ambitious film to date.
Zack Sharf SPOILER ALERT: Do not read unless you have seen “Nope,” in theaters now. A November 2014 social media post from Jordan Peele has resurfaced following the release of his third directorial effort, “Nope,” due to the filmmaker revealing he had a disturbing dream about a chimp attack.“Dreamt that a baby chimp attacked some people then ran to me and hugged me all scared,” Peele wrote on Twitter nearly eight years ago. “I woke up with tears streaming down my face.”A chimp attack factors prominently into “Nope,” although it’s a side story that only thematically connects to the main narrative about two siblings (Keke Palmer and Daniel Kaluuya) on a mission to record a UFO above their horse farm.
Donna Mills was used to keeping tight-lipped about many a juicy plot twist.But the TV legend had to cope with a whole new level of top-secret security clearance when she signed on to appear in director Jordan Peele’s latest creepy hit “Nope,” which just opened atop the box office this weekend.“I’d signed an NDA, and I couldn’t tell anybody [about it],” Mills, 81, told The Post about her as role as Bonnie Clayton in a key early scene of the sci-fi thriller. “I mean, I literally couldn’t tell my daughter.
Rebecca Rubin Film and Media ReporterJordan Peele, of all filmmakers, shouldn’t be surprised that the conversation around “Nope’s” box office performance has stirred up several hot takes.The director’s cerebral science-fiction thriller took in $44 million in its box office debut, easily leading domestic charts and impressively landing one of the biggest opening weekends in years for a film that’s not based on existing IP.And yet, there’s still debate about the film’s first weekend in theaters, with suggestions that initial numbers for “Nope” were “disappointing” or “lackluster.” Like any good Peele movie, there’s plenty to unpack about opening weekend revenues for “Nope.” And in fairness, the movie — starring Daniel Kaluuya and Keke Palmer as siblings who discover something spooky around their family’s ranch — had a lot to live up to at the box office. “The bar has been raised so high,” says Paul Dergarabedian, a senior ComScore analyst.Peele can thank his last film, 2019’s doppelgänger horror story “Us,” for those sky-high expectations.
Jordan Peele ’s UFO thriller “Nope” topped the North American charts in its first weekend in theaters with an estimated $44 million in ticket sales, Universal Pictures said Sunday. Though it doesn’t come close to the $71 million debut of “Us,” it is still significantly impressive for an original, R-rated film — and the biggest of the pandemic for an original screenplay.
WARNING: Spoilers ahead for “Nope”Jordan Peele had a twisted treat for those who saw his new film “Nope” this weekend: the intro to Ricky “Jupe” Park’s infamous sitcom “Gordy’s Home!”In “Nope,” Steven Yeun plays Ricky as an adult, running the Santa Clarita amusement park, Jupiter’s Claim, in an effort to capitalize off his celebrity as a ’90s child star. At the peak of his fame, Ricky starred in “Gordy’s Home!” a sitcom about a chimp who lives with a family of humans.
The movie Nope is now in theaters and it’s going to be a hit for sure!
Jazz Tangcay Artisans EditorJordan Peele wanted a vast spectacle with his latest release, “Nope.”The UFO drama/thriller stars Daniel Kaluuya as a horse wrangler, who along with his sister Keke Palmer, start encountering UFO sightings. Along with Brandon Perra as Angel, the trio attempt to capture the sighting on film.Peele called on Christopher Nolan’s preferred DP Hoyte Van Hoytema to shoot his spectacle. It was the Peele’s first outing shooting on film and using large format 65mm IMAX cameras.
“Nope,” has finally arrived.The film follows Peele’s first two horror films as a writer/director, 2017’s “Get Out” and 2019’s “Us.” Known for his comedy and leading role in “Key and Peele,” Peele has quickly become a draw for fans as a filmmaker and “Nope,” unlike Peele’s first two films, leans heavily into the sci-fi genre with a blockbuster-sized budget. Peele reteamed with Daniel Kaluuya on the film, which finds a brother and sister duo trying to catch UFOs on camera.With “Nope” being one of the most highly anticipated films of the year, many are no doubt wondering where and how to watch it.
Jon Burlingame editorDirector Jordan Peele launched Michael Abels’ film composing career five years ago with “Get Out.” Now, for Peele’s “Nope,” the two-time Emmy nominee has written his most ambitious score to date.“It has all these different elements,” says Abels. “There’s the awe and wonder that the characters experience, but then there’s also the satire.
Brent Lang Executive Editor of Film and MediaJordan Peele’s “Nope” grossed a solid $6.4 million in Thursday previews as it looks to be the rare blockbuster with a brain to succeed at the summer box office. The plot of the science-fiction horror film has been shrouded in mystery, but reviewers have likened “Nope’s” supernatural elements to Steven Spielberg classics such as “Close Encounters of the Third Kind.”The Universal release is expected to top the domestic box office, but estimates vary about what it will ultimately rack up, ranging from predictions of a debut of $45 million to something in the $60 million neighborhood.
Jordan Peele‘s newest movie, Nope, is aptly titled, as a mysterious flying object over ominous clouds in the film’s first act makes it clear this is not your average alien horror flick.
Jordan Peele‘s much-anticipated third film, “NOPE,” hits theaters this weekend, and Universal Pictures has done a great job keeping the movie’s secrets under wraps. Plot details for the film remain scarce even days before its release.
the 2017 horror hit nobody saw coming, which thrust Peele and star Daniel Kaluuya into the stratosphere and netted a Best Picture Oscar nomination. But pass-the-popcorn “Nope,” which reunites the pair, is entertaining, smart, artful summer fare with its heart planted firmly in the 1980s heyday of blockbuster films. Just when you think, “They don’t make ’em like this anymore,” Kaluuya rides in on a horse.I’ll be careful not to reveal more secrets than I have to, but it’s OK to say that Kaluuya’s character OJ and his extrovert sister Emerald (Keke Palmer) are California animal trainers for film sets. Their family-owned ranch is called Haywood’s Hollywood Horses, and lately, business has been in a slump since their more experienced dad died mysteriously — he fell off his steed, and a quarter was found lodged in his brain.Soon after the tragedy, the horses begin having mysterious temper tantrums and regularly run off into the mountains.
Nope” is writer/director Jordan Peele’s latest genre-bending experiment in terror and it is certainly his most ambitious.The story of OJ Haywood (Daniel Kaluuya) and his sister Emerald (Keke Palmer), part of a family of Black stunt performers, who are menaced by a UFO following the mysterious death of their father (Keith David), expands the scope of his previous films, gently nudging it into summer blockbuster territory. (Steven Yeun plays the proprietor of a western theme park next door to the Haywood ranch who has secrets of his own.) Of course, this being a Jordan Peele movie, it is also ambitiously structured, provocative, and symbolically rich.We got to chat briefly with Peele about a missing shot from the teaser trailer (of a crab crawling over a miniature living room), the importance of animals in his movies (never more important than in “Nope”) and what some of his inspirations were for his big summer movie.You must know that people are going to pick these things apart. There’s a crab in the teaser trailer that isn’t in the movie …Oh my God.
Peculiarly shaped mirrors, Jordan Peele’s movies harness genre conventions, in varying degrees of success, to package ideological inquiries in exciting narrative vehicles where collective fears and biases are projected. To look into his intellectually adventurous pop confections means to confront those scary reflections while being utterly entertained.
