Plot details are being kept under wraps, but sources say the pic is meant to be as provocative and thought-provoking as Peele’s Oscar-winning debut, 2017's Get Out.

Peele is once again directing from his own script. He also is producing via his Monkeypaw Productions, alongside Sean McKittrick and Jason Blum. Also producing is Monkeypaw’s Ian Cooper.

Universal has dated the movie for a March 15, 2019, release.

Heidecker is half of the comedy duo Tim & Eric (Eric Wareheim being the other half), who have headlined several shows and a special over the years.
