Jordan Peele has transitioned from being a sketch comedy funny-man to a horror master director and fans can't get enough. He received his first Academy Award last year for Best Original Screenplay for his critically-acclaimed film Get Out and this year he's hoping to snag Best Picture for producing Spike Lee's BlacKkKlansman. Just a couple of months back Peele also dropped the trailer for his highly-anticipated release of his next psychological thriller Us, starring Lupita Nyong'o and Winston Duke. Yet, it's Peele's reboot of The Twilight Zone that has had industry tongues wagging for months now, and finally, we get a taste of what's to come in the new series.
The new Twilight Zone will feature Peele acting as both the executive producer and host, naturally. In the chilling, recently released trailer, we're shown a mash-up of episodes that give nod to the beloved and familiar scenes that helped make Twilight Zone a timeless classic. We see that actor Adam Scott will star in the remake of William Shatner's famous Nightmare at 30,000 Feet, and the clip features a star-studded cast that includes Sanaa Lathan, Tracy Morgan, John Cho, and Steven Yeun. And, of course, it wouldn't be complete without a cameo from Peele, himself.
Are you hyped for the new Twilight Zone?
