In this week’s episode, we highlight the impactful career of actor Daniel Kaluuya. In his young career, Kaluuya has delivered several performances that will be cemented in the cinematic lore. 


  • We start with the under-seen, under-appreciated film Judas and the Black Messiah, in which Daniel Kaluuya plays activist and Black Panther chairman Fred Hampton. 
  • Second, Kaluuya stars in Jordan Peele’s game-changing, modern classic Get Out
  • Finally, Kaluuya displays his acting and producing chops in the 2019 film Queen & Slim.
