Jordan Peele knew he wanted Brandon Perea for NopeMovie after his first audition - but he asked for a callback anyway 👀 He wanted to get the heartwarming moment Perea found out on camera 😮😍👏
Jordan Peele shares a video of Brandon Perea’s heartwarming reaction to getting his part on Nope. Perea played a supporting role alongside Daniel Kaluuya and Keke Palmer in the sci-fi horror movie that released over the summer. Peele's creature feature went on to make over $170 million worldwide and garner critical acclaim, cementing the current master of horror as a bona fide box office draw.
Working with Peele is a major opportunity, and at a recent event hosted by the Critics Choice Association, the director reveals a hilariously sweet way he used that to his advantage when casting Perea. In a video of the event shared by Monkeypaw Productions' TikTok, Peele, as he is presenting Perea with a rising star award, reveals that while he knew after the first audition that he wanted Perea to play Angel, he opted to playfully withhold the information and bring him in for a callback.
The payoff was certainly worth it - while not instantly becoming a fan-favorite, as his role wasn't shown much in marketing, it's apparent that Perea's Angel Torres serves as a sort of audience surrogate, making him exceptionally relatable and easy to root for. His introduction to the film as Emerald and OJ buy gear to expose the UFO haunting Haywood ranch serves as refreshing comic relief, changing the tone of the film as the second act kicks off.
Peele made the right choice in casting Perea as Angel, and whatever the process, it's clear the film benefited from the script re-write to expand his part. In the final cut, the amount of detail that's given to the character, especially Angel's room and shirts lent to Emerald and OJ, is evidence that an appropriate amount of effort was put in throughout the creative process.
