WATCH IT: Jennifer Coolidge checks back into The White Lotus Wendell & Wild is available on Friday, Oct. "Squirrels that bite and wrestle!" That sounds like a sketch that needs to be included in the inevitable Key & Peele revival. "Having us in the booth together, especially for a long amount of time, for Henry it must have been akin to having 30 squirrels in a room together," Peele joked. "It is so epic, the amount of time it took to make this project," Key remembered at a post-screening Q&A at TIFF, adding that he and Peele originally recorded most of their scenes together. (Watch their first meeting in the exclusive clip above.) Premiering at this year's Toronto International Film Festival, Wendell & Wild delighted audiences with Selick's usual mixture of nimble storytelling and dazzlingly animated set-pieces. The two stars voice the title characters, demon brothers who conspire to cross over into the human world with the reluctant help of orphan, Kat Elliot, voiced by Lyric Ross. And it's a reunion that's literally been years in the making - the pair started working on the film when Key & Peele was still on the air. Seven years after bidding farewell to their eponymous Comedy Central series, the dynamic duo of Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele reunite for Wendell & Wild, a stop-motion extravaganza from master animator Henry Selick. Somewhere President Obama and his anger translator Luther are smiling.
