As a way to let her fans and followers know it, she posted a slideshow with a couple of photos on her Instagram account. The first one showed her next to Boots Riley and Lakeith Stanfield, who worked with her in Sorry to Bother You.

The photo showed all actors’ outfits. Thompson put on a red midriff-baring dress that showed a little too much of her skin. As for the accessories, she chose triangle-shape red sunglasses and a red purse.

Riley put on red, black, and white plaid pants, matching sweater, and big black glasses. Stanfield, on the other hand, opted for a shiny red outfit, a black shirt, and matching shoes.
