The Big Picture Daniel Kaluuya is no stranger to being in front of the camera as the star of such blockbusters as Get Out, Nope, and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, but now the actor is set to make his debut behind it as he co-directs upcoming dystopian drama The Kitchen alongside Kibwe Tavares. Not only that, but the star also co-wrote the screenplay with Joe Murtagh.
The film, which stars Kane Robinson, Jedaiah Bannerman, Hope Ikpoku Jr, Teija Kabs, Demmy Ladipo, Cristale and BackRoad Gee, takes places in a dystopian future which sees the gap between the rich and poor stretched to new extremes. With social housing a thing of the past, all that remains is The Kitchen: an unmoving community who refuse to leave the place they call home.
The Kitchen is Set to Cook Up a Storm at the Festival The Kitchen will have its world debut on October 15, closing out the festival. BFI London Film Festival director Kristy Matheson said that the new directors "have made a film that totally explodes our expectations of contemporary UK cinema," adding that the film "offers such scope for audiences — the essential social politics and high-octane energy gel perfectly to create an electrifying big screen experience.
Following its debut at the festival, The Kitchen will release in UK theaters before subsequently hitting Netflix at a later date.
