Chiwetel Ejiofor spoke to ComingSoon about his second directorial effort and the true story that inspired Rob Peace.
ComingSoon Editor-in-Chief Tyler Treese spoke to Academy Award nominee Chiwetel Ejiofor about his second directorial effort, Rob Peace. Ejiofor discussed the film’s tragic true story, its themes, and similarities to his first film as a director. It is out only in theaters on August 16, 2024.
Jeff Hobbs’ book about his roommate at Yale, I was struck, I think primarily, by the humanism of it. The idea of a person looking at the life of their friend and trying to understand what happened to them in a wider context. Then in investigating Rob’s journey, understanding all of those familial bonds that tie the relationships to family, the relationships to community, the relationships to friends, and what Rob was striving to do in all of those spaces.
The real strength, or what was really interesting about Rob to me, was that he was always himself. That he could encapsulate both of these parts of his life, these different and complicated spaces. He could wear his durag in the lab and be a Yale student studying molecular biophysics and biochemistry and be accepted within that context with some struggles, don’t get me wrong, but broadly accepted within that context.
