Jordan Peele’s phenomenal horror film Get Out has been setting box office records, earning critical acclaim, and creating new internet trends. One of these is the #GetOutChallenge where challengers attempt, and sometimes fail, to run quickly towards a camera and make a sharp turn.

Lupita Nyong’o and the rest of the Black Panther cast appear to be big fans, as they’ve done this question with Nyong’o posting not one, but two Instagram videos of the cast doing the #GetOutChallenge. Of course, since Get Out star Daniel Kaluuya is part of this ridiculously talented cast (Kaluuya will play W’Kabi, the chief of Wakandan security) he makes an appearance, set to Childish Gambino’s “Redbone.” Here’s the one Nyong’o posted before:

Kaluuya has previously talked about how excited he is about Black Panther as an “African blockbuster,” a sentiment shared by many if you just browse the #BlackPantherSoLit tag for a bit. It’s a delight to see how much fun the cast has behind-the-scenes, which I hope we get to see a lot of in future featurettes. Remember the amazing Coming to America-themed joint birthday party Danai Gurira and Kaluuya had with the hashtag #WakandansInZamunda?
