With his third feature, Nope, now released, fans will be curious to know what Jordan Peele's next movie is.

Peele made his directorial debut in 2017 with Get Out, a social thriller starring Daniel Kaluuya that was a surprise box office hit. That movie put a bright light on Peele's directing future, as the thrilling story and social commentary propelled Get Out to win an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay. He followed it up with the movie Us in 2019 and oversaw a reboot of the TV series The Twilight Zone, too.
