During tonight’s Super Bowl, an ad for Jordan’ Peele’s upcoming CBS series of The Twilight Zone aired and it’s strangely…inspiring? I don’t know but something about the music and the presentation combine into an ad that, at first, starts confusingly (is my TV broken? Is my cable out?) but then moves to a place of wonder rather than fear, of fascination rather than terror. It’s only at the end, when the hint of that signature title theme plays, does a tendril of unease grab hold.
Peele’s The Twilight Zone, which he is hosting and executive producing, will be airing on CBS’s SVOD platform
Actors confirmed and/or rumored to be participating in the new Twilight Zone include: John Cho, Allison Tolman, Jacob Tremblay, DeWanda Wise, Jessica Williams, Rhea Seehorn, Kumail Nanjiani, Steven Yeun, Luke Kirby, Greg Kinnear, Sanaa Lathan, Ike Barinholtz, and Taissa Farmiga.
