Nope movie cast guide: Who is each actor playing in the movie?

If your plans don’t include seeing Jordan Peele’s Nope movie this weekend, then do us a favor, and cancel all your appointments because we absolutely don’t want you to miss out on a single second of the most-talked-about movie of the year! Here’s why.

From Get Out to Us, Peele has always been a director that has little issue getting audiences to purchase tickets for his projects. This is not only because the visionary has incredibly unique ideas and brings them to life in a way that is rarely seen in Hollywood but also because he has a rather profound understanding of how to put together the perfect ensemble full of people who know how to truly give breath to a script.

The actors Peele seeks out always go above and beyond their roles to create an experience so otherworldly that you’ll have to pinch yourself a couple of times to remind yourself that it’s a performance. You can bet the cast of Nope movie will make you feel the same way, too.

Are you interested in learning what marvelous cast Jordan Peele put together this time? If so, read on to learn all about the cast of Nope and which character each person will be playing.

Nope movie cast

First up is none other than BAFTA award-winning actor Daniel Kaluuya. Kaluuya starred as Chris Washington in Peele’s Get Out in 2017, but this time, he’s playing a character who, while still in grave danger, doesn’t have to run away from an organ-harvesting family. (From what we can tell, at least.)

Kaluuya stars as OJ Haywood, the son of Otis Haywood Sr., and brother of Emerald Haywood, who is played by Scream Queens actress Keke Palmer.

Alongside Kaluuya and Palmer is The Walking Dead alumni Steven Yeun. Yeun plays the role of Ricky “Jupe” Park, a former child actor who grew up to be the creator/owner of the carnival Jupiter’s Claim.

In addition to all these wonderful stars, the cast of Nope features:

• Brandon Perea as Angel Torres
• Michael Wincott as Antlers Hols
• Wrenn Schmidt as Amber Park
• Keith David as Otis Haywood Sr.
• Donna Mills as Bonnie Clayton
• Barbie Ferreira as Nessie
• Oz Perkins as Fynn Bachman
• Eddie Jemison as Buster
• Andrew Patrick Ralston as Tom Rogan
• Jennifer Lafleur as Phyllis Mayberry
• Terry Notary as Gordy
