Key & Peele Earn Their Own Feature Film
The Comedy Central sketch show Key & Peele has been a success for the network. Recently it was renewed for a 4th season. Unfortunately the show is one of those rare examples of something incredibly clever and well done, but not remarkably well known. An average of near 2 million viewers tune into each episode. Universal Pictures will be taking Key & Peele to the next level by putting them in front of a large audience in a feature film. Key & Peele will star in the film while also serving as executive producers according to Deadline. It’s great to see a studio ready to back up the efforts of these comics.
If you are unfamiliar with Key & Peele, or simply want to be entertained, watch a clip from a recent episode below. The two spoof a Mandingo fighting scene from 2012’s Django Unchained.
