It's quite the time for grandsons of well-known actors taking roles. The latest is Duke Nicholson, whose surname should be a bit of a clue as to his family connection. Yes, with grandpa Jack looking on, the young man has joined the cast of Get Out director Jordan Peele's latest, Us.

Peele, who wrote and is directing the film, has yet to reveal any plot details, but it's said to be another socially conscious thriller.

Nicholson's role is unknown, but he joins a cast that already includes Lupita Nyong'o, Winston Duke, Elisabeth Moss and Tim Heidecker. It'll mark his first stab at film acting, though he has appeared in a Dandy Warhols music video.

Peele is producing the film under his new deal with Universal, and Us will be out on 15 March next year.
