90% certain this has nothing to do with the filmmaker and I don’t even think Daniel is complaining. These things are usually handled by PR departments and shyt that the studio likely outsources

Steve Urkel may be one of the most lovable and recognizable characters in sitcom history. Despite the character's cultural impact, the actor that played him for nine seasons on "Family Matters" is revealing that not only was he never nominated for an Emmy, he was never even invited to the award ceremonies.
"It's fair of me now to definitely say ... you were made to feel African-American," Jaleel White told Yahoo Entertainment in a new interview. "Fred Savage was always invited to the Emmys; he was always treated like a darling during his time. I was never invited to the Emmys, even to present. It was pretty much told to us I would be wasting my time to even submit myself for nomination."

The 44-year-old actor and podcast host said, "It was so normalized — you just shrugged and was said, 'Oh yeah, that's for the white kids.'"
Even though he portrayed what became an iconic character, White was never nominated for an Emmy for his role on "Family Matters," which ran from 1989 to 1998. He co-starred in the sitcom in his teens, first appearing on the hit show when he was 12. The sitcom itself was only nominated once over the course of nine years, for outstanding special visual effects in 1996. Other popular sitcoms in ABC's TGIF block of programming also weren't recognized by the Television Academy, including "Step by Step," "Boy Meets World" and "Full House."
Jaleel White recalls ‘Family Matters’ moment that made him tear up
Regardless of the prestigious group never honoring "Family Matters" or White (or even extending an invitation to the actor to present), the "Ever After" podcast host said that he felt the indelible impact of the sitcom through the public's universal reaction.
"I always took tremendous pride in how many different people, from all walks of life, came up to me and recognized 'Family Matters,'" White said. "I was always really, really proud of that because that showed a complete opposite of the way I was being treated by our television elite."
Nowadays, White urges Black creators to tell their stories, but to make sure they are relatable enough so people from all walks of life can appreciate them.
He said, "I even try to make sure I encourage African-American filmmakers today like, don't forget, we want to tell Black stories, but we want to make these themes universal enough that our Black stories can resonate with other people, other cultures."
I’m pretty sure it happened something like this:
Get Out Team: Daniel, can you attend screening at X date?
Daniel:Not sure, filming Black Panther, may be in Zamunda on that date. I’ll holla...
Get Out Team: Cool Bro
*get out team makes arrangements assuming Daniel won’t get out of Black Panther filming*
Daniel: I’m free y’all.
Get Out Team: See, about that.

one is a tv industry showcase and the other one he would have to get an invite from the studio.... NOT the director as others are pointing out
everything is conflated on this site.
Daniel is a good actor, but "Get Out" was solid but a tad bit overrated.
I'm sure Daniel will get his flowers he's to talented a brother not to.
Peele should probably make a statement in reference to his team or whoever was hired making that oversight.

damned mine eyes, DAMNED mine eyes!!
I didnt know that. With this one drop rule of you Americans labelling everyone who isnt blonde with blue eyes as black...its difficult to know who really is.
But you're right he aint one then
Jordan Peele is a clown. Not surprised.
Jordan Peele is not sending out invites. This was a Blumhouse movie. They're notoriously cheap so with their lead busy on another set they probably didn't feel like spending the money to get him there. Not to mention this was a screening and the actors don't need to be there. He attended the premier.
How is he a clown? He makes movies and shows and is never involved in any nonsense.
