Red & The Tethered

Us (2019)

The lore

Underground doppelgangers who rise up to replace the surface world, each tethered to a person above.

The look

  • Red jumpsuit
  • Single golden glove
  • Gold scissors

Behind the screams

Nyong’o based Red’s voice on spasmodic dysphonia. The film’s Hands Across America imagery nods to a 1986 charity event.
