“#’Karen’ trailer shows Taryn Manning as a terrifying racist neighbor<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

Karen is getting her own movie.<\/p>\n

A trailer dropped over the weekend for the upcoming horror film, \u201cKaren,\u201d starring Taryn Manning, 42.<\/p>\n

Manning, known for her breakout role in \u201cOrange Is the New Black,\u201d will be playing the titular role in the BET film production. Cory Hardrict (\u201cAmerican Sniper\u201d) and Jasmine Burke (\u201cSaints & Sinners\u201d)\u00a0will star alongside Manning, with Coke Daniels (\u201cHis, Hers & the Truth\u201d) directing.<\/p>\n

Centering around a racist white woman named Karen White, the film\u2019s title comes from the now-infamous nickname that identifies white women for their intolerant, manager-calling and racist behaviors. The trailer teases how White\u2019s motives align with her name\u2019s notorious reputation when a young black couple, portrayed by Hardrict and Burke, eagerly arrive in their new neighborhood.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s when Karen really lives up to her name.<\/p>\n

While in a restaurant, Manning\u2019s character proceeds to pull a typical \u201cKaren\u201d move and demands a black patron obey her wishes, or she will \u2014 in typical \u201cKaren\u201d fashion \u2014 call the manager.<\/p>\n

The rest of the trailer depicts how Karen progressively gets worse with her microaggressions against her new neighbors and the horror that comes with each escalating event.<\/p>\n

Karen\u2019s entitlement is portrayed through the fictional lens, but it\u2019s clear the events are derived from real-life events as the trailer shows Karen calling the cops on a group of young black men. <\/p>\n

Taryn Manning expressed she felt she had a \u201csocial responsibility\u201d and duty to play this villain. <\/p>\n

\u201cEven though I\u2019m playing the opposing side, if I have to sort of play the villain and do all that to help make change, I was more than willing to step into the role. If you don\u2019t like me in the role, perfect, I did my job just great. But the main point is that what\u2019s been going on is just devastating, and it\u2019s time for a change. And for me to be a part of that bigger picture meant a lot to me,\u201d Manning explained during a TMZ interview.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

The trailer first dropped on Friday but became a trending topic on Twitter by Monday. Not only is \u201cKaren\u201d trending, but so is \u201cGet Out\u201d and its creator Jordan Peele as fans attribute the director\u2019s critically-acclaimed 2017 film as a source of creative inspiration for \u201cKaren.\u201d <\/p>\n

Although viewers are mocking the new film for its absurdity, some Twitter users are debating whether this is a satirical film or a horror film with efforts to genuinely comment on the social justice movement and the rise of \u201cKarens.\u201d <\/p>\n

Is that Karen movie preview\u2026 an SNL thing or is it real?<\/p>\n
