Oscar-winning Jordan Peele is set to reunite with his long-time Key and Peele partner Keegan-Michael Key for Netflix’s stop-motion feature, Wendell and Wild.

The Night Before Christmas and Coraline director, Henry Selick, will take the helm on the picture which will see Peele and Key voice the character of demon brothers.

The feature is based on an original idea by Selick who states the story will focus on “two scheming demon brothers who must face their arch-nemesis, the demon-dusting nun Sister Helly, and her two acolytes, the goth teens Kat and Raoul”

Selick and Peele are writing the script along with Clay McLeod Chapman. Additionally, publisher Simon & Schuster will also feature a tie-in book from Selick and Chapman to be released in conjunction with the film.
