'Perea’s career is almost certainly going to hit another echelon now that Nope has hit cinemas. For the time being, though, he just hopes that audiences are thoroughly entertained by Peele’s dynamic storytelling and filmmaking.'
Perea’s dad would always sneak Brandon, his younger brother Jordan, and his older brother Mike into movie theaters when he was younger. It was while watching R-rated action movies and fight scenes that Perea caught the bug for entertaining. At first, though, it took the form of breaking. This then expanded into him becoming a jam skater, which is someone who mixes dance, gymnastics, skating, and roller skating.
This work helped prepare Perea for his future career as an actor. “It just helped me navigate entertainment. I just kind of had this knack for performance when it came to entertaining a crowd. The bigger the crowd, the easier it was for me. But even if it was a small crowd that didn’t make a noise, I still kept that energy up.”
