The Twilight Zone

Synopsis

A new relaunch of the series that has shaped sci-fi on the television as we know it.

The new reboot of the classic anthology was directed by Jordan Peele, who a couple of years ago became famous for the films Us and Get Out. In the new Twilight Zone, Peel is not only a scriptwriter and director but also the narrator.

Each episode of Twilight Zone is a short and complete sci-fi story that has nothing to do with other episodes. One thing unites them is a fantasy about what happens to a person if something incredible happens in their life.

• Many directors and producers tried to return the series to the screens again, from Brian Singer to Leonardo DiCaprio, but only Jordan Peele succeeded.
