After COVID-related delays, horror film ‘Antebellum’ is finally arriving on VOD this month. The film’s twists and turns are best enjoyed the less you know, but like ‘Get Out’ and ‘Us’ before it, the social thriller deals directly with issues of racism, slavery, and white-on-Black violence. Ahead of the movie’s release, Rotten Tomatoes Editor Jacqueline Coley sat down with the film’s star, Janelle Monáe, to talk about why ‘Antebellum’ is not just a twisted thriller, but a rallying cry for the nation right now. Plus, Monáe discusses the projects she wants to see Hollywood tackle next, while filmmakers Gerard Bush and Christopher Renz, and co-stars Kiersey Clemons, Tongayi Chirisa, Jack Huston, Jena Malone, Gabourey Sidibe, and Lily Cowles, talk their favorite horror films, honoring the seriousness of their story, and what it was like to work with their lead star.
