‘A Quiet Place: Day One’ Actor Teases Film Is More Of A Drama Than Horror Movie

Jordan Peele’s next film will not be one that he is directing. Instead, Justin Tipping (Dear White People, Kicks) will helm this picture, based on a script pitched by Zack Akers and Skip Bronkie. The title of the film does not revolve around a barnyard animal; rather, it focuses on the ‘Greatest Of All Time’.

Details are scarce at the moment. What is known is that the story centers around a highly promising athlete who is invited to train with the team’s retiring star. Deadline reports that studio executives have conducted screen tests to determine who will portray the young athlete in the film. However, sources indicate that Wayans has always been the studio’s top choice for the lead role.

Anything that Peele and the Monkeypaw team put together is bound to have its fill of all-out scares and sociological real-world terrors. Get Out and Us were huge on those kinds of scares.

The synopsis for Peele’s Get Out went like this:

Now that Chris and his girlfriend, Rose, have reached the meet-the-parents milestone of dating, she invites him for a weekend getaway upstate with her parents, Missy and Dean. At first, Chris reads the family’s overly accommodating behaviour as nervous attempts to deal with their daughter’s interracial relationship, but as the weekend progresses, a series of increasingly disturbing discoveries leads him to a truth that he never could have imagined.

Monkey Paw producers onboard Goat include Peele, Win Rosenfeld, Ian Cooper and Jamal Watson are producers. Executive producers are David Kern and Kate Oh.

Tipping’s past film directorial effort includes Kicks. While, his TV work includes Black Monday, The Chi, Flatbush Misdemeanors, Joe Vs Carole and Dear White People.
