Comedian, writer, and director Jordan Peele is moving forward with his next project, in the form of an original thriller.
Peele first properly made his mark with his and Keegan-Michael Key’s Comedy Central sketch show Key & Peele, before really turning heads with this year’s horror/thriller breakout hit, Get Out.
Per an official press release from Universal Pictures, Peele is currently hard at working writing the original screenplay for his followup to Get Out in the form of another socially-conscious thriller as part of a first-look production agreement with Universal.
After bringing light to some of the more insidious forms of social prejudice still prevalent within the American population at large, Peele’s next turn behind the camera – now confirmed to be an original thriller – is sure to draw significant attention.
