The New CANDYMAN Is AQUAMAN’s Yahya Abdul-Mateen II
In which Nia DaCosta and Jordan Peele's horror remake finds its star.

After a whole bunch of rumors and a seemingly endless parade of fan-casting suggestions, Nia DaCosta's Candyman remake (headed our way next year via Jordan Peele's Monkeypaw Productions) has found its villain: Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, last seen giving Jason Momoa what-for in James Wan's Aquaman, is currently in talks to star in the film.

The news comes to us via Variety, who also point out that Abdul-Mateen II will soon be seen in HBO's forthcoming Watchmen series. Dude was great asAquaman's Black Manta, but can we also take a moment to appreciate the man's taste in genre projects?

As you know, the new Candyman is a "spiritual sequel" to Bernard Rose's 1992 original, which followed a graduate student investigating reports of a hook-handed slasher menacing Chicago's Cabrini-Green housing projects. The newCandyman will bring the action back to that same neighborhood, with something of a modern twist. Given the history of this franchise (which also includes Bill Condon's Candyman: Farewell to the Flesh and Candyman 3: Day of The Dead), we're guessing this version will also feature a strong undercurrent of social commentary. Needless to say, we cannot wait.

Nothing further to report on Candyman at this time, but this is one of our most highly-anticipated projects, and we'll be keeping our ear to the ground for further updates. Stay tuned.

ill take ur word for it
but whenever folks posted supposedly great and funny sketches
from the show
i never laughed

 

[jayt1202]

I didn't watch the show that much because I never found the few eps I saw in full that funny. The aa-ron sketch will definitely live on though.

They black???
Cause no black persons would do some trash **** like that
Unless they lame

 

[superblytrife]

One of my favorite sketches from K&P.

 

[P A Z]

I always thought Key and Peele did black humor for a white audience. But I'm all the way in for Jordan Peele's films.

Key on the other stays corny AF. Anything and everything he's in is trash.

Disappointed, I found out Jack London Sq had two early screenings on 3/14. Bought tickets then they cancelled the showings shortly after.
