This companion paperback to the critically-acclaimed film Us features Oscar®-winning director Jordan Peele’s screenplay illustrated with over 150 stills from the motion picture, deleted scenes, an introduction by the filmmaker, and in-depth annotations.
I partnered with IN-FO.CO as lead designer, collaborating closely with Monkeypaw Productions and NBCUniversal from concept through production. My main challenge was to build on the established visual identity in the series’s first title, Get Out, while introducing new elements that felt authentic to Us. In this multi-year project, my responsibilities included auditing the first book to understand its pacing, studying screenplay formats to inform more faithful typesetting, and rewatching the film scene-by-scene to identify key visual moments. I also curated film stills for the interior and selected the wrap-around cover image, which encapsulates the film’s theme of duality and subtly foreshadows a central narrative twist.
In 2025, Film at Lincoln Center featured the book at their event, The Other America: A Cosmology of Jordan Peele’s Us. Read more about it here.
