00:00You have been on a whirlwind of premieres. Us is finally coming out.

00:06What are you excited for audiences to see?

00:09I'm excited for audiences to really talk about the movie after they leave the theater.

00:14And I'm excited for them to really, you know, for them to, you know, share with their friends.

00:22So, yeah.

00:24And Jordan Peele, working with him, what did you learn the most from him?

00:29I learned most about his fears because he's afraid of bunnies and scissors.

00:37So I think that when people leave the theater, you're going to be afraid of that, too.

00:42More freedom in now, too?

00:43Probably. A little bit. A little bit.

00:45Variety asked Lupita last night at the premiere if she wanted a sequel to Us.

00:51And she said absolutely not. What about you?

00:55Hmm. I don't know. I don't know.

00:58I feel like Jordan put it in a good place for there to be a sequel, but I don't know if I would want to see.

01:04I feel like the magic is already there, you know.

01:07Were you a fan of Get Out?

01:08Yes. I've been a fan of Jordan even before Get Out.

01:12And how do you think it compares, as it compares to Get Out?

01:17Well, I've heard, like, some theories that say that they're in the same universe, but they really aren't.

01:22I think that the real thing, I think that what I really love about both of them is their differences, because they're so different.

01:31You know, there's two different stories, and, you know, one of them's about race, and the other one's just about the monster inside of you.

01:37So, yeah, I think that one's about you.

01:39Thank you so much.

01:40Wonderful to meet you. Congrats.
