During this weekend’s NBA playoffs, Universal Pictures aired a brand new 30-second TV spot for Jordan Peele‘s upcoming sci-fi horror film Nope. The video features Golden State Warriors basketball star Stephen Curry. The video is reportedly inspired by one of the terrifying scenes in the film.
The film reunites Peele with Oscar® winner Daniel Kaluuya (Get Out, Judas and the Black Messiah), who is joined by Keke Palmer (Hustlers) and Oscar® nominee Steven Yeun (“The Walking Dead”) as residents in a lonely gulch of inland California who bears witness to an uncanny and chilling discovery.”
Nope, which co-stars Michael Wincott (Hitchcock, “Westworld”) and Brandon Perea (“The OA,” American Insurrection), is written and directed by Jordan Peele and is produced by Ian Cooper (Us, Candyman) and Peele’s Monkeypaw Productions.
Nope will be released by Universal Pictures worldwide in theaters on July 22, 2022. Check out the TV spot below.
