Jordan Peele has only made three films over a five-year period, but in that time he has emerged as a master of a new genre: High-concept Black horror-thrillers with a social edge and bitingly satirical takes on race, class and gender.
Peele began his career as a comedian in the sketch series Key & Peele alongside Keegan-Michael Key, spoofing horror classics like The Exorcist (1973). But it was his directorial debut in 2017 Get Out that catapulted him to fame.
