Keke Palmer digs deep and brings the emotion in Jordan Peele's newest sci-fi thriller, 'Nope.' nope kekeplamer jordanpeele DanielKaluuya scifi

Director Jordan Peele’s new science fiction thriller, Nope, tells the story of two siblings, Emerald and Otis “OJ” Haywood , continuing their father’s legacy of handling horses for television. Their family history has been intertwined with Hollywood and horses for generations.

This relegation of Black people to the background of the cinematic world is pervasive, not only in film history, but in present-day filmmaking as well. Peele actively rewrites this narrative by creating films like Get Out, Us and now Nope that position Black people at the center. The stories unfold from their point of view—a profound contrast to other popular horror films of recent decades in which Black characters are often either tokenized or treated as dispensable.

Time and again, the only adult character in Nope who exhibits emotional range is Emerald. While her male counterparts parry their way through fear-inducing experiences , Emerald carries the emotional arc of the story. The audience quickly learns to take our emotional cues from Emerald. It is her range, skillfully expressed by Palmer, that forms our emotional connection to her. She is funny, spontaneous and unfiltered at first—a stark contrast to her brother’s stoicism.

In media depictions, femininity is frequently associated with emotionality, from Disney princesses crying over their stolid princely counterparts to the hot-and-cold, drama-fueled high school girls in teen shows like Glee and Euphoria. Emotionality, and conversely, femininity, become regarded as weakness. This is particularly true when, as in the case of many of these depictions, emotional distress is portrayed as something that male characters must save the females from.
