Dear heavens, no! Jordan Peele is teasing more “Nope” in our future. We really don’t need this talented writer-director to embark on his own cinematic universe.
Peele is a talented guy and I’m saying this as someone who loved “Get Out,” and really liked “Us.” His sense of framing a shot is really quite something. However, the last thing he should do is follow the money.
What Peele should do is go back to his smaller-budgeted roots and slyly provoke us the same way he did with his first two features. Don’t get me wrong, there’s a lot to like about “Nope” and its ambitious scope, but, if anything, it showed how Peele is not ready to paint on a bigger canvas.
Snyder has mentioned in the past how “Sucker Punch “never really got finished correctly,” and that it was “not really the correct cut.” The extra footage is actually already shot.
