Peele added:
Peele founded Monkeypaw in 2012 with the intention of cultivating “artistic, thought-provoking projects across film, television and digital platforms. The company is committed to groundbreaking storytelling, visionary world-building and the unpacking of contemporary social issues. Monkeypaw Productions champions highly specific perspectives and artistic collaborations with unique and traditionally underrepresented voices. The company’s work challenges the conventional architecture of genre storytelling from horror to science fiction to social satire, while balancing avant-garde visual language with undeniably contagious fun.”
While Monkeypaw has been around for a few years, it’s safe to say Peele’s Oscar win for Get Out has made the company even more in-demand. In addition to the projects mentioned above, Peele and Monkeypaw also produced Spike Lee’s BlacKkKlansman, due out this summer. Peele and Monkeypaw will also have a hand in the CBS All Access reboot of The Twilight Zone. In other words, it’s great to be Jordan Peele right now, and it’s also great to be a Jordan Peele fan.
