‘Get Out’ Star Daniel Kaluuya Reveals He Was Not Invited To The Movie’s Premier. The Entertainment industry can be a very ostracizing community to black people no matter how hard you prove your worth, and this was the story of Get Out and Black Panther star Daniel Kaluuya.
Opening up to Hollywood publications, the actor told the disappointing story of how he never got an invite to the premiere of “Get Out,” despite being the star of the Oscar-winning film.
Upon his interview on The Graham Norton Show, the award winning actor confessed that he waited and waited but never received an invite to attend the movie’s world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival in 2017.
“I was in Atlanta because I was shooting ‘Black Panther, I was chilling, I cleared my schedule. I was like, ‘I really wanna do it.’ And then I just didn’t get the invite, man” Kaluuya said.
Norton implied that the production must have made a mistake by not forwarding him an invite, but according to the actor this is the moral code of Hollywood producers towards actors of colour.
“You don’t want to be in a place that you don’t feel wanted, you feel me” he said.
Daniel Kaluuya recently won at the 2021 Golden Globes for best performance by an actor in a Supporting role for his role in Judas and the Black Messiah.
The actor was once again treated unfairly after he got his acceptance speech cut off for an entire 20 seconds due to a supposed technical issue, which is still in question by the actors fans.
Congratulations Daniel!!
