Nope

Editor - Nicholas Monsour NOPE editor Nicholas Monsour has been collaborating with writer/director Jordan Peele since their days together on the comedy sketch tv series KEY & PEELE (2015).   When the comedy team took their talents to the big screen with the Peele-penned feature, KEANU (2016), Monsour knew it would be a big leap for him to take on the editorial duties, but made his best pitch anyway.  The bet paid off and Nick found himself behind the Avid for his very first feature film.  Peele would reach out to Nick once again for his sophomore film directing venture, US (2019).  Prior to reteaming with Peele for US, Nick continued to refine his cutting chops on tv series such as; BROCKMIRE (2017), COBRA KAI (2018) and WHISKEY CAVALIER (2019). NOPE was written, directed, and co-produced by Jordan Peele under his Monkeypaw Productions banner.  It stars Daniel Kaluuya, Keke Palmer, Steven Yeun, Brandon Perea and Michael Wincott.  In the film, two ranch-owning siblings, with the help of a tech salesman and a renowned cinematographer, attempt to capture and sell video evidence of an unidentified flying object.
