Cool. I didn’t have any interest in his movies even before he opened his mouth.

Here's a bit of advice - let small minded people be small minded. Then don't go buy a ticket for his movie.

Haven't seen Us yet, but there were plenty of white actors in Get Out. And he's also hosting the new version of The Twilight Zone on CBS All Access, and there are tons of white actors involved in that (I'm not sure if he's doing much with that show outside of hosting it?)
He probably shouldn't have said what he did, but I bet you Spike Lee and Tyler Perry have a much higher ratio of blacks actors in their movies than Jordan Peele ends up casting down the road.
