A Jordan Peele tweet from almost 8 years ago eerily foreshadows the monkey plotline in his latest film
A tweet by director Jordan Peele from 2014 has resurfaced in which he details a dream he had that directly connects to a scene from the recently-released Nope. Nope's impressive box office debut has cemented Peele's status as a horror force to be reckoned with after similarly noteworthy openings for his previous efforts, 2017's Get Out and 2019's Us.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Nope in particular has been hailed as a horror spectacle not just in how it uses impressive alien designs and the threat of capture by UFOs as peak horror tension, but how it makes horror out of things naturally found on Earth. The unforgettable opening flashback sequence culminates with a terrifying monkey attack on the set of the supposed 1980s primate-related sitcom Gordy's Home.
Dreamt that a baby chimp attacked some people then ran to me and hugged me all scared. I woke up with tears streaming down my face. #bruhOnline users are now seeing the 2014 tweet by Peele in a new light from when it was originally posted in the midst of Peele's run on Key & Peele. Peele's tweets in this time period were more lighthearted and relatable, as they were from the guise of a comedy performer rather than a horror filmmaker.
The discovery of this prophetic tweet from Peele brings several details to light. This tweet, and this dream, predates the production of Get Out, meaning an idea like this has been floating around Peele's head for longer than several of the ones that have spooked audiences in his first two films.
