As reported by The Wrap, Peele and his Monkeypaw Productions company will join Underground creator Misha Green and J.J. Abrams’ Bad Robot to produce Lovecraft Country, a horror anthology series for HBO.
For HBO, Lovecraft Country marks a return to the horror anthology format popularized by their classic ’80s series Tales From the Crypt.
In addition to his involvement in Lovecraft Country, Peele also is reportedly developing a new thriller as part of his recently announced first-look deal with Universal.
Along the way, the trio not only encounters horrific racism but other more supernatural horrors (hence the title’s reference to Lovecraft).
