"Us" director Jordon Peele is not interested in casting "white dudes" as leads in his films as he believes there are already too many movies focusing on them.
The director, who made his debut with "Get Out", has once again struck box office gold with "Us", about a family terrorised by their doppelgangers.
Peele said being a successful director gives him a chance to put minority faces on the screen.
"The way I look at it, I get to cast black people in my movies. I feel fortunate to be in this position where I can say to Universal, 'I want to make a $20 million horror movie with a black family.' And they say yes," Peele said while speaking to improv students at
"I don't see myself casting a white dude as the lead in my movie. Not that I don't like white dudes, but I've seen that movie."
