The comedic gents behind Key & Peele are back together.
That cycle would continue throughout the production process, but each time brought back fond memories.
“It’s like you had a dance partner for years and years and years.
Keegan-Michael Key as Wendell and Jordan Peele as Wild in Netflix’s ‘Wendell & Wild’.Netflix
It was just locking those pieces in again.”
(They were acting a bit like demons at the time, as it were.)
The plan was to write a book, but that directive never came to fruition.
“This is gonna be a peas-in-the-pod relationship.
This is going to be a one-upmanship relationship.
This is going to be a Mexican standoff relationship.
This is gonna be whatever it is, a Laurel and Hardy relationship.
Eventually, I came to this place where Wendell’s the big brother.
Wherever there is a peak for Wild, there’s a valley for Wendell.”
“The beauty of it is it keeps bringing us together to have that conversation,” Peele says.
“Just a half hour ago we were reminiscing and saying, ‘Who knows?'”
“It’s like we put the water in the pot.
We just haven’t put a teabag in yet,” Key adds.
“Who knows what that’s going to lead to?”
Wendell & Wildpremieres Friday in theaters and Oct. 28 onNetflix.
