CelebNMovies247.com has learned that Jordan Peele will focus on ” high-level content that transcends genre.”
These days, with just two movies, Jordan Peele has asserted himself as one of the most bankable, original storytellers in Hollywood.
Universal Films Entertainment Group chairman Donna Langley had this to say in a statement:
Jordan has established himself as a premier voice and original storyteller with global appeal. He is leading a new generation of filmmakers that have found a way to tap into the cultural zeitgeist with groundbreaking content that resonates with audiences of all background. We also share an important goal with Monkeypaw when it comes to increasing representation on-screen in the characters that are portrayed, the stories that are told, and the people who tell them.
So far, there are no details regarding the next two movies that Jordan Peele has planned.
Peele is seemingly very interested in bringing original ideas to the big screen.
Jordan has this to say in a statement.
It would not have been possible to make Get Out and Us without the endless trust and support we received from Donna Langley and the team at Universal. Their willingness to take risks and their commitment to original content makes them the perfect collaborative partner for Monkeypaw. I couldn’t be more excited for what lies ahead.
We look forward to see what is coming next from Peele.
