Comedian turned writer-director, Jordan Peele is using his debut film ‘Get Out’ to open lines of communication about issues involving racism. In a new featurette (via Bloody-Disgusting) Peele explains why he made ‘Get Out’ and why the subject needs to be addressed. The film follows Chris (Daniel Kaluuya) and his girlfriend, Rose (Williams) who have reached the meet-the-parents milestone of dating, she invites him for a weekend getaway upstate with Missy (Catherine Keener) and Dean (Bradley Whitford).

Daniel Kaluuy and Allison Williams star in the lead roles in the ‘Get Out’. Betty
