Jordan Peele’s New Social Thriller Set for 2019 by Universal
Justin Kroll - Film Reporter

After signing Jordan Peele to a first-look deal following the success of his directorial debut, “Get Out,” Universal has dated his next film for March 15, 2019.

Currently untitled, the movie’s plot details are being kept under wraps. Peele will write, direct, and produce the social thriller based on his original idea.

The pic will face stiff competition from Brie Larson’s “Captain Marvel,” which opens the week before, and Millie Bobby Brown’s “Godzilla: King of the Monsters,” which launches the following week.

“Get Out” opened at the top of the domestic box office in February, and the thriller has since become both a commercial and critical success, grossing almost $230 million worldwide. Under his new deal, Peele will also produce a wide range of movies for the studio through his Monkeypaw Productions, including several micro-budget projects with Jason Blum, as he did with “Get Out.”

Peele also recently announced plans to develop “Lovecraft Country,” a new HBO event series with Bad Robot’s J.J. Abrams and Ben Stephenson, and “Underground” co-creator and showrunner Misha Green. Peele broke out — along with Keegan-Michael Key — on the Comedy Central sketch series “Key & Peele.”

Talented guy. I've been binge watching Key & Peele for a few weeks, and I'm impressed by their eye and ear for parody.

Heinz-Klett · 05-24-2017, 12:25 PM

Get Out wasn't as good and fresh as I expected after all the praise, but nevertheless I'm excited about his new work.

I generally prefer Untitled Social Thriller 9. They really peaked with that one, imo.

WTF is a "social" thriller? Does it deal with social diseases?

I imagine it'll be in a similar vein to Get Out in that is a thriller based in social issues.

jacobsever · 05-24-2017, 04:29 PM

What the heck is a social disease?!

White?

Male?

I'm assuming that's why you're asking...

Did you just assume their gender?

Would buy a ticket now if I could.

I didn't want to confuse them and my point with terms they probably wouldn't get.

I'm not entirely sure that Brie's film will have the same demo as this. Granted, yeah, it's going to be huge. But they sound like movies that would likely appeal to very different audiences. I don't know, maybe I'm completely off base. Just a first reaction.

Nice art. Excited. Love Get Out.

'Get Out' was pretty good. Not great, the finale was a bit so-so for me. But it sure as hell was original, meaningful and interesting to watch. Curious to see the newest creation.
