Lupita Nyong’o is the new face(s) of horror. As the leading ladies in Jordan Peele’s deeply unsettling new film ‘Us,’ Nyong’o lurches and rasps her way into the company of the genre’s most complex and chilling antagonists. In conversation with Sam and Jaimee, Academy Award-winner (and generally incredible human) Nyong’o discusses her revolutionary twin roles in this ground- and record-breaking shocker, her research into Spasmodic Dysphonia (the condition that informed Red’s already-infamous voice), her “horror homework”, and playing “the Other.” *MILD SPOILERS FOR ‘US’* Check out our two new original shows ("It's Been a Weird Week" and "A Conversation With...") exclusively on Brew! https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/brew-podcasts/id1451868575 Want even more?
