In the days before the premiere of creepy doll thriller/enduring Twitter meme M3GAN, budding scream queen Allison Williams is taking time to remember where it all started. (No, not that one time she sang “Stronger” on Girls, although that is, certainly, a kind of horror in itself.)
It’s hard to imagine now, but we once lived in a pre-Get Out world, where Jordan Peele was best known for making up a roster of weird football player names or being a student to the world’s most unhinged substitute teacher as one-half of comedy-duo Key & Peele. The idea that he could also produce a horror film that would change the entire film landscape seemed far-fetched at best—at least, to Allison Williams’ publicist.
