Kumail Nanjiani is a struggling stand-up comedian who just sold his soul for fame and fortune. And Adam Scott is a paranoid traveler stuck on a terrifying flight.
These are some of the scenes from the new contemporary reboot of the classic 1960s anthology series "The Twilight Zone," which is executive produced by comedian-turned-blockbuster horror filmmaker Jordan Peele (Get Out, US).
Set to premiere on April 1st (April's Fools Day) on CBS All Access, the new "The Twilight Zone" streaming series will feature a couple of episodes called "The Comedian" (starring Nanjiani) and "Nightmare at 30,000 Feet" (starring Scott).
CBS has just released a couple of new trailers, offering a peek at these episodes, which also stars Tracy Morgan (30 Rock) as a devilish deal-maker and Chris Diamantopoulos (Silicon Valley) as a dubious airplane passenger.
Along with his executive producing duties, Peele will also serve as the series' host and narrator, a role made famous by legendary sci-fi writer and "Twilight Zone" creator Rod Serling.
