Jordan Peele BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Here is what is buzzing in the world of Jordan Peele this week. The biggest headline: Universal Studios has yanked Peele’s much-discussed next feature off its October 2026 release slate after earlier delays. News of this removal was picked up by outlets like The AV Club and World of Reel, confirming what many industry folks have whispered for months, namely that Peele’s next directorial project is both untitled and without a script. Sources say Peele scrapped not just one but two separate scripts earlier this year, and at this point, he’s reportedly back at square one, brainstorming but with nothing on paper. This means there’s currently no expected release date at all, and some insiders are openly speculating whether we will see a new Peele-directed film before 2027. While such creative resets aren’t unheard of for major auteurs, this is a notable and rare dry spell for a filmmaker whose movies have become certified events.Fans doubled their speculation online, with social feeds lighting up after the Universal news dropped last week. Even the ever-optimistic Black Girl Nerds posted about the now-absent mystery project. There are whispers about creative overhauls and behind-the-scenes studio tension related to Peele’s strong takes on representation and genre conventions, but nothing is officially confirmed on those fronts. On a recent podcast with Conan O'Brien, Peele himself hinted that the pressure of following his trio of hits weighed on him but added, in typical Peele fashion, that his next big idea, when it comes, could be his favorite yet.But Peele is hardly invisible. This Friday is the highly anticipated release date for HIM, a psychological horror film that Peele produced and which Universal and his Monkeypaw Productions are pushing hard. The film, set in the high-stakes world of pro football, stars Marlon Wayans and Tyriq Withers and had its splashy Seattle advance screening this week to strong early buzz. The HIMMovie accounts on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter have been amping up, with Universal banking on another box-office winner from the Monkeypaw team. Notably, Peele is attached as director for HIM, adding significant weight to its prospects.Meanwhile, Monkeypaw Productions continues to expand: Peele’s company recently announced partnerships, most notably collaborating early this year on The Horror Section, a new media firm focused on building a vast library of intellectual property and original genre content. And for those tracking his public appearances, Peele is being celebrated all month at Hartford’s Real Art Ways, where his features Get Out, Us, and Nope are the centerpiece of a September film series with live discussions led by Yale professor Brandon Ogbunu.So while the fate of Peele’s own next blockbuster feature remains an open question, his creative output and cultural impact show no signs of fading. For Hollywood and horror fans alike, the question is not if Jordan Peele will deliver another landmark film—just when and what shape it will take.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI
