Daniel Kaluuya, LaKeith Stanfield share the love of a hero and freedom of performance
LA TimesThe same year Daniel Kaluuya and LaKeith Stanfield shared that unforgettable scene in Jordan Peele’s political horror classic “Get Out,” the moment where Stanfield screams the film’s title over and over again, the two men found themselves sharing the bill at a one-night performance of “The Children’s Monologues” at Carnegie Hall. After the show, Kaluuya told Stanfield that he had agreed to join him on the film “Judas and the Black Messiah,” a tense portrait of Illinois Black Panther Party leader and defiant activist Fred Hampton and William O’Neal, the FBI informant instrumental in Hampton’s killing. Daniel Kaluuya and LaKeith Stanfield first worked together on Jordan Peele’s “Get Out.” Kaluuya: Twenty-one was a big year for me in terms of meeting myself. Daniel and Kaluuya and LaKeith Stanfield star in “Judas and the Black Messiah.” Daniel, you told me once about the history textbook you found with information you weren’t learning about filled in the margins.
