Daniel Kaluuya has officially joined Leicester Square’s Scenes in the Square trail, immortalised in the unforgettable ‘Sunken Place’ scene from Get Out. As part of the ‘Scenes in the Square’ trail, Kaluuya’s statue will bring to life the intense “Sunken Place” moment from the Oscar®-winning film that became a cultural sensation back in 2017.
Voted by 5,000 British film fans as the actor they most wanted to see in the trail, Kaluuya’s inclusion marks a huge milestone for homegrown talent. Get Out earned four Academy Award® nominations, including Best Picture and Best Actor for Kaluuya himself. It also won the Oscar® for Best Original Screenplay!
With a budget that was relatively small, the film shocked everyone by grossing over $250 million worldwide, making it the highest-grossing debut film based on an original script in Hollywood history.
