Toronto/CMEDIA: . Screening of Nope as a special IMAX® presentation at the Cinesphere Theatre at Ontario Place, recognized as the world’s first permanent IMAX® theatre would round out this year’s 2022 Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) lineup.

Following the screening, TIFF CEO Cameron Bailey will lead an engaging Q&A session with Jordan Peele.

Nope, like all of Jordan Peele’s brilliant films, invites and rewards repeat viewings,” said Bailey. “We’re excited to offer TIFF audiences the chance to watch Nope in the spectacular setting of the world’s first IMAX® cinema, and to hear insights from Peele himself on one of the most original, exciting films of the year.”

The story of OJ and Emerald Haywood, who have inherited a horse ranch from their father, the film Nope portrays carrying the torch of his craft as an animal wrangler for film and television.

After observing unexplained phenomena on the ranch, they try to capture the mystery on camera and are suddenly aware of an irreversible storm. Starring Daniel Kaluuya, Keke Palmer, Steven Yeun, Michael Wincott, and Brandon Perea, Nope is written and directed by Peele (2017’s Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay winner Get Out; 2019’s Us).

Tickets for this special screening and Q&A session with Jordan Peele go on sale to TIFF Members beginning September 3 at 10am, and to the public September 5, at tiff.net/tickets.
