Poster for Universal Pictures’ ‘Get Out.’

The first trailer’s arrived for Get Out, a suspense thriller from writer/director Jordan Peele (of Key and Peele). The film marks Peele’s first movie as director and stars Daniel Kaluuya, Allison Williams, Bradley Whitford, Catherine Keener, Caleb Landry Jones, LilRel Howery, Betty Gabriel, Marcus Henderson, and Keith Stanfield. Peele, Jason Blum, Sean McKittrick, and Edward H. Hamm Jr. produced the Universal Pictures release which is targeting a February 24, 2017 theatrical release.

The Plot: When a young African-American man visits his white girlfriend’s family estate, he becomes ensnared in a more sinister real reason for the invitation. Now that Chris (Kaluuya) and his girlfriend, Rose (Williams), have reached the meet-the-parents milestone of dating, she invites him for a weekend getaway upstate with Missy (Keener) and Dean (Whitford). At first, Chris reads the family’s overly accommodating behavior as nervous attempts to deal with their daughter’s interracial relationship, but as the weekend progresses, a series of increasingly disturbing discoveries lead him to a truth that he could have never imagined.
