>Spike Lee is teaming with Get Out filmmaker Jordan Peele for Black Klansman, the true story of an African-American police officer who infiltrated the KKK.
>John David Washington, Denzel Washington's son and one of the stars of HBO’s Ballers, is in negotiations to star in the dramatic crime thriller that is gearing up to shoot this fall with Focus Features distributing.
>Lee will direct and produce the movie with Peele producing via his banner Monkeypaw Productions, along with Sean McKittrick, Shaun Redick and Raymond Mansfield of QC Entertainment and Jason Blum of Blumhouse Productions. The latter group teamed up previously to produce Peele’s groundbreaking horror thriller Get Out, a box-office sensation of early 2017.
>The team-up between Lee and Peele is momentous because it represents two black filmmakers from different generations working on a socially conscious project that couldn't be more timely given the recent racial unrest in America.

>Black Klansman, the true story of an African-American police officer who infiltrated the KKK. Should be a comedy, not a thriller.

Easton Gutierrez
>Spike Lee
Carter Gomez
Even Lee's and Peele's more serious projects have comedic elements. I doubt something titled "Black Klansman" will be played completely seriously.
Dylan Richardson
>BLACK BLACK BLACK BLACK BLACKITY BLACK BLACK
Brody Sanchez
It should be a full on comedy though.
Jackson Myers
Is this guy just going to keep making thriller movies revolving around black dudes in racially tense situations?
Adam Perry
The real question is: will this be a Peele Picture or a Spike Lee Joint?
Aaron James
>The Chapelle skit
Bentley Baker
>DUDE LMAO BLACKS AND RACISM RACIAL BLACK BLACK NIGGA HANDS UP DON'T SHOOT Imagine how creatively bankrupt one must be to keep making worthless drivel like this, nobody will remember any of this shit let alone want to watch it in a few decades.
Literally my first thought.
Joseph Hughes
I would be a race traitor if I were a black person who had an IQ that was 100+.
Nathan Johnson
>Spike Lee & Peele Joint Picture
Charles Phillips
>All these mad whiteys It's only a movie you spergs.
Tyler Nelson
Spike Lee is one of my favorite directors, looking forward to it.
Owen Brooks
Must be really hard to come up with new films when you are the victim of constant, daily racism all the time. Much respect! I wish he would experience a single day without racist accusations. Not even beloved filmmakes seem to be save.
Liam Barnes
You had to be a democrat to join the KKK. It's been defunct almost a century with small groups of low iq fat people using the name. Then these limousine liberal uncle toms make exploitation flicks based on it.
Xavier Clark
Who's the honky?
Brayden Lee
Has this kind of thing already been done? The black white supremacist?
Ian Martin
"The Clayton Bigsby Case Files"
Nicholas Walker
Boondocks did it with Uncle Ruckus and Dave Chapelle did it with a blind black guy who thought he was white and joined the KKK.
Noah Martin
Yay, more racially-tinted movies. I sure won't get tired of that gimmick.
Aiden Rivera
Same here.
Shame no one likes 25th hour though
Luke Clark
that was the best chapelle episode
Asher Howard
american blacks are becoming as insecure as indians
Benjamin Evans
No one cares about them otherwise. The only get funding for their subpar directing because they are black and writing about black experiences.
Do they ever want to tackle and explore the themes of...literally any other subject known to man? Sure, but the film will likely be panned.
Thomas Allen
I wish you guys were around during the 90s to bitch about this.
Isaac Carter
Injuns aren't nearly as obnoxious as niggers. They're cool with just drinking away their lives as long as you don't want to develop on their land.
Jack Thomas
i mean the indians from india
Matthew Morris
indians are literally the most insecure people I know. is that what hundreds of years of english ownership does?
Caleb Taylor
25th hour and summer of sam are his best films
Aiden Nelson

Dylan Reyes
Peele is so fucking odd looking
Jace Wilson
Why are Sup Forumsbeards so easily triggered and perpetually offended/whining? Do you think that this constant crying is an attractive trait to have?
Henry Fisher
>black who infiltrates an organization that hates blacks How the fuck is that supposed to work? Does he just keep the KKK hood on at all times?
Jaxson Cruz
Shit these fucks really do need to thank chapelle
Dominic Smith
WHITE BAD. BLACK GOOD.
Aiden Turner
>Jordan Peele. No thanks.
Leo Mitchell
I swear they had better pull a bait-and-switch and play this like a Mel Brooks film.
Ryan Mitchell
I really didn't mind Get Out that much, it was a fairly entertaining movie but the interviews with Peele and the main character were just awful. Constantly playing the victim role and going on about being woke and muh raycism
Austin Turner
yeah, cuz the guy who boycotted the oscars, for not having nominated niggers, is not going to make his next film about how evil the white man is, and be dead serious about it
Dylan Martinez
For fucks sake. Why are nearly all black people movies ABOUT black people? I'm a spic, and i haven't seen any other race be as insecure as them in terms of making movies.
Whites don't make movies about being white that often; Asians don't make movies about being Asian that often; Latinos don't make movies about being Latinos that often. Why are these fucks so insecure that they can't stop talking about themselves and begging for attention?
Matthew Campbell
>mostly white, maybe a quarter black >abandoned by his black family >adopted and raised by a white family >makes a living going on about the black experience and making fun of white people
Really toots my flute
Jaxon Hall
its a popular topic in america, the only country that matters and also the only country that makes movies that matter
Aaron Rivera
Intrigued
Evan Lopez
Does 'infiltrated' mean he got into the pc version of the klan because they allowed him?
Charles Wright
Powerful
Brandon Baker
i wish i was black so i can spend every black minute of my black existence thinking black thoughts and doing black things
Justin Flores
stay woke famm
Lincoln Gutierrez
This
It's like making "a gay cowboy movie" it's just fucking retarded
Kayden Martinez
so nothing
Kevin Bennett
holy shit this is the stupidest thing I've seen today. good post I see why wetbacks are just as fucking annoying as niggers
Robert Ross
More divisive shit
Charles Phillips
Prove me wrong, fag. No one else is as self-aggrandizing, yet so insecure at the same time. At this point, i'm sure they WANT to create racism just to have more things to cry about.
Jacob Lee
t. retards who didn't read the article
Landon Gutierrez
Halfies tend to have an unhealthy obsession with proving how black they are to "actual" black people
Matthew Russell
fucking hacks it's already been done
Ian Price
So Peele's show ripped off Dave Chappel so hard that even his movie career he is going to rip him off?
Andrew Martin
>Filmed in black & white, like in real life! Genius
Jayden Robinson
ah yes the KKK
so timely and topical
literally what is happening all around me as we speak
