New Trailer for Jordan Peele and Keegan-Michael Key's WENDELL & WILD Teases Phantasmic Thrills
Netflix has released another great new trailer for the highly-anticipated stop-motion animated horror film Wendell & Wild. The movie was directed by Henry Selick, the director of The Nightmare Before Christmas and Coraline and it tells the tale of “the hellishly funny demons of a teen named Kat.” The movie also stars Jordan Peele and Keegan-Michael Key, and it’s described as a “phantasmic thrill ride.” It looks like a ton of fun!
Wendell & Wild follows a pair of demon brothers who trick a troubled teen named Kat Elliott (Lyric Ross), into bringing them from the underworld into the land of the living and mayhem ensues. “What Kat demands in return leads to a brilliantly bizarre and comedic adventure like no other, an animated fantasy that defies the law of life and death, all told through the handmade artistry of stop motion.”
The rest of the voice cast includes Lyric Ross (This Is Us), Angela Bassett (Black Panther), James Hong (Kung Fu Panda), Tamara Smart (A Babysitter’s Guide to Monster Hunting), Natalie Martinez (“The Twilight Zone””), Tantoo Cardinal (Dances With Wolves), Gabrielle Dennis, Igal Naor, David Harewood, Maxine Peake, Ramona Young (“Never Have I Ever”), Sam Zelaya, Seema Virdi, Gary Gatewood, and Ving Rhames (Pulp Fiction, Dawn of the Dead).
Netflix will be released in select theaters on October 21, 2022, followed by the Netflix streaming premiere on October 28th.
