Jordan Peele’s Get Out is one the year’s most talked about movies. Peele has been praised for his creative directorial debut.
At the end of Get Out, Chris (Daniel Kaluuya) ends up killing the family of his girlfriend, Rose (Alison Williams), as he attempts to escape their clothes before he becomes the latest victim of their Coagula experiment.
Chris ultimately survives because he’s picked up by his friend Rod, who is played by Lil Res Howery.
But now there is an alternative ending for the film, which likely leaked from the upcoming Blu-ray/DVD.
The alternative ending, which has been posted on Slate and other media outlets, is a lot more realistic of what would happen to a black man in Chris’s situation.
In the alternative ending, Rod does not save Chris. It is two white cops, who immediately arrest him.
Then Rod, who seems to be doing everything in his power to help Chris get out of jail, goes to visit him. But it seems Chris can’t remember the important details of what happened to prove self-defense.
In one part of the scene, Rod and Chris acknowledge it is impossible for him to get out of jail, and he hangs up the phone.
Chris ends up accepting his fate.
The clip ends with Chris being escorted back to his cell, accused of doing something he technically did not do.
In a recent interview on The Talking Dead With Chris Hardwick, Peele explained that he had written several endings and that one particular one would be on the Blu-ray/DVD. In fact, Peele told Chris Hardwick that the original ending, “left people wanting something different.” Peele was glad that he was able to get enough money to reshoot the final scene that he “knew would really work.”
