À propos de cet audio
Jordan Peele has once again captured the spotlight this week with the unveiling of new behind-the-scenes images and a first-look featurette for his much-anticipated Monkeypaw Productions horror project, now officially titled Him, set for theatrical release on September 19, 2025. Vanity Fair lit up movie news with the exclusive image, and according to Bloody Disgusting and Syfy, the sports-themed psychological horror film, directed by Justin Tipping, promises to explore the dark ties between a rising young athlete and a retiring legend, spotlighting the seductive lure and cost of fame and greatness. The cast features Marlon Wayans, Julia Fox, Tyriq Withers, Tim Heidecker, Jim Jefferies, and Grammy nominee Tierra Whack, with Peele’s creative fingerprints all over the production.
The big featurette, which dropped August 22 and was quickly picked up by outlets like Soap Central and widely discussed on Instagram, put Peele front and center as he described Him as a horror story truly unlike any before it. Peele’s candid words fueled fan speculation, but he was clear that the terrifying narrative is about idolization, sacrifice, and the demons that come with success—both literal and metaphorical. Marlon Wayans amped up the buzz in the same preview by teasing that Him will be like no other sports movie, quickly making #HimMovie trend across film social media accounts. The film’s marketing slogan “Greatness demands sacrifice” is everywhere online, with fans dissecting what monstrous surprises Peele has in store this time.
Although Peele’s personal appearances have been scarce, his work is seeing high-profile programming attention in retro horror film marathons. The Cinema Arts Centre on Long Island is featuring Peele’s Us alongside other icons during its annual All-Night Horror Marathon, reaffirming Peele’s top-tier horror status and confirming continued cultural relevance for his past and future filmography.
Industry chatter also noted, via IMDb News, how Peele’s failed bid to acquire the script for Weapons by Zach Cregger left him reportedly disappointed, which industry insiders speculate could indicate an appetite for expanding his producing slate far beyond just Monkeypaw’s in-house projects. However, that rumor about a secret cameo or a directorial surprise in Him remains unsubstantiated, with all current evidence confirming Peele’s role as producer and creative overseer rather than director.
To sum up: the week belonged to Him and Jordan Peele’s unmissable power as a genre innovator. From featurettes to festival programming and a swirling social media storm, Peele’s status as horror’s reigning impresario remains unchallenged and only grows with every whispered hint and headline.
