On September 14, “Karen,” a suspense thriller about an entitled and sick racist woman who is torn apart when a Black couple moves into the McMansion next door, will premiere. A first peek at the title, which includes a derogatory word for toxic white women who want to talk with the manager, sparked outrage on social media and drew analogies to Jordan Peele’s “Get Out.”
Microaggressions from the titular Karen and her officer brother frustrate the couple’s attempts to fit into their new neighborhood, as played by Cory Hardrict and Jasmine Burke.
What is Karen about?
An entitled, bigoted Caucasian woman played by Taryn Manning goes to great lengths to remove the peaceful African American couple played by Cory Hardrict and Jasmine Burke who recently moved in next door from her prized neighbourhood.
According to the official logline, Taryn Manning stars as Karen, an entitled, bigoted Caucasian woman who pulls out all the stops to rid her precious neighbourhood of the peaceful African American couple who just moved in next door. Greenleaf’s Greg Alan Williams, Wild ‘N Out’s Lorenzo Cromwell, and Empire’s V. Bozeman co-star.
Karen had a previous trailer release in June that sparked social media outrage — it even drew Wendy Williams’ notice, who mentioned it on her syndicated talk show.
