Jordan Peele and Selena Gomez are teaming up for a series adaptation of Sean Lewis’ graphic novel Coyotes to be released on Prime Video.
The original comic book series follows a town where women are mysteriously going missing, and has been described as “Kill Bill meets The Last Of Us” with a “mythic” twist.
“Officer Frank Coffey is trying to get to the bottom of this when he meets Red, a little girl with a katana blade and a mission: murder the Werewolves stalking the border picking women off one by one,” the synopsis reads. “When it’s discovered that the Wolves are the men of these villages, both Red and Officer Coffey are thrown together in a thriller of mythic proportions with the lives of their friends and loved ones in the balance.”
Gomez is joining the project as executive producer, while Peele is contributing through his Monkeypaw Productions banner. It’s yet to be announced whether Gomez will make an on-screen appearance, with casting on pause due to the ongoing 2023 Writers Strike. While a release date has yet to be announced, if Peele’s streak of award-winning supernatural hits is any indication (Nope, Us, Get Out), we can expect Big Things on the horizon.
