Issa Rae & Jordan Peele Developing New Film On ‘Female Perfection And Identity’
Universal Pictures has landed an intriguing new project from Issa Rae and Jordan Peele.
The New Film Issa Rae & Jordan Peele are Developing is titled Sinkhole; described as “a thought-provoking genre piece, that engages with questions of female perfection and identity.”
The report reads; “In a low seven-figure deal, Universal beat out more than 10 studio bidders & multiple talent and filmmaker packages for screen rights to Leyna Krow’s short story. It’s about a young family which moves into their dream home; except for the gaping sinkhole in the backyard. The mysterious sinkhole manages to fix broken & destroyed things. However, the story asks, what if that thing is a person?”
Krow will executive produce the film. Her story was initially published in the literary journal, Moss. From Spokane, Washington and the story takes place on the real-life street which she lives on. “She was initially inspired to write the piece when a group of local writers were asked to write short fairy tales on the theme ‘I Married A Monster,'” states Deadline. “She wanted to explore the notion of female perfection, and was particularly interested in the ways society and cultures can promote the concept of women as imperfect or broken. Her story has the trappings of a grounded, psychological sci-fi/horror; but the sub-plot is a commentary on the human condition through the lens of female identity”.
