Henry Sellick Joins Hands With Kegan Key and Jordan Peele to Bring a New Animation About Underworld – ‘Wendell and Wild’ on Netflix

In today’s day and age of CG animation, a stop animation feature film is definitely hard to find. However, the master of stop animation, if we may say, Henry Selick has taken on the arduous yet rewarding task of showing everyone the magic of stop animation once again. He will do so through a story about two devil brothers named Wendell and Wild. The notorious duo is using a just-in juvenile teenager, Kate, to open up the gates to the Land of the Living. The original story comes from Henry Sellick, who was inspired to write this story as he watched his two sons play. The genius joked that they kind of remind him of demons. To freshen up your memory about the genius in question, Henry Sellick, the man who has blessed us with iconic movies such as The Nightmare Before Christmas, James and the Giant Peach, and Caroline. After more than a decade, he is back in his cruel comedy style with Wendell and Wild. One more reason to put this movie on a pedestal is the fact that it stars Jordan Peele and Kegan Michael Key from the hilarious sketch comedy Key and Peele. Let us find out more about how Wendell and Wild came to life.
