Daniel Kaluuya claps back at Logan Paul
Daniel Kaluuya clapped back at Logan Paul after the social media personality called his new movie Nope the 'worst film of all time'.
Daniel Kaluuya joined Capital Breakfast to speak about his new science fiction horror film, Nope.
During the chat, Sian brought up the recent 12-Tweet-rant criticising the film by boxer and social media personality, Logan Paul.
Within the thread Logan labels the movie as the 'worst film of all time' as well as describing Kaluuya's part as 'the most mundane, vanilla character I’ve ever seen.'
“NOPE” is one of the worst movies I’ve seen in a long time.

I love Jordan Peele and Keke Palmer can act her ass off, but this movie is objectively slow and confusing with stretched themes that don’t justify the pace (a thread)
9.) Way to strip all the life from a phenomenal actor, Daniel Kaluuya, by casting him as possibly the most mundane, vanilla character I’ve ever seen. Not a question I’m just pissed

When asked whether he'd seen the thread, Kaluuya responded "Logan Paul, God... we going to talk about this?"
“Why is his opinion top of the tree? Everyone’s entitled to their opinion but what’s he done in cinema? Imagine if they asked me about Eric Clapton.”
“I’d take everyone’s opinion on, I’ll listen to it but I’m just going ‘I don’t know why you over everybody else.'
“I’m happy to sit down with him… actually would I sit down with him? Nah actually that defeats the point, I wouldn’t sit down with him."
Do I sense another celeb boxing match on the horizon!?
