Jordan Peele Issues Update On “Mike and Vandaveon” Animated Series

Is this happening?

Jordan Peele’s got a new movie in theaters on February 24th called Get Out. Jordan actually wrote and directed the film, two points of interest because he’s going to be doing a LOT more of that on the horizon. The dude’s busy. He just got hitched to Chelsea Peretti who is now expecting, and his partner-in-crime Keegan-Michael Key is all over the place in terms of movies, voice-work, and hosting award shows.

As a result, the long in development animated spin-off of Key & Peele known as Mike and Vandaveon has been on the backburner. In a recent Reddit AMA session, JP supported that claim but says the series is still very much alive.

Mike and Vandaveon, the cartoon, it’s not dead, yet. It’ll be a little bit a while until the momentum can come up and I can put a little more attention into it. But I still have it.

So, there ya have it! Sounds like it’s gonna be a while if it happens at all. Key and Peele’s respective careers have been so busy, who the hell knows if this even goes down. Personally, I’d like to see it, but I’m not holding my breath.
