Universal Pictures announces NOPE, a grand visual sci-fi treat from director Jordan Peele
Universal Pictures has announced the release of an upcoming sci-fi thriller, NOPE, in India. Written and directed by Jordan Peele, the film stars Daniel Kaluuya, Keke Palmer, and Brandon Perea in pivotal roles. The film will release on August 19 in theatres across India. The story of this sci-fi thriller revolves around siblings who run a ranch in California, where the residents of a lonely gulch witness peculiar, ominous activities in the skies. Worsening the situation is the owner of an adjacent theme park, who is trying to profit from the mysterious, otherworldly phenomenon.
Jordan Peele shares his inspiration of writing NOPE and says, “Humanity, combined with the feeling of existential helplessness is my inspiration for writing the script for this movie. I targeted this idea of spectacle to bring people out to the theatres and help invigorate their love for the cinematic experience. At the same time, I asked myself the reason why we are obsessed with spectacle. Why is the human condition such that we have this addiction to witnessing magic, be it beautiful or horrific?”
