Keke Palmer to Lead TV Adaptation of Cult Classic 'The 'Burbs'

Peacock orders straight-to-series remake with Palmer as star and executive producer, joined by Seth MacFarlane and Brian Grazer.

The original 1989 film starred Tom Hanks and Carrie Fisher, becoming a cult classic despite mixed reviews.
The new series will be set in present-day suburbia, focusing on a young couple facing mysterious threats from new neighbors.
Celeste Hughey will write and executive produce, with Dana Olsen, the original film's writer, co-executive producing.
The series will be filmed on the Universal Studios backlot, the same location as the original movie.
Keke Palmer's diverse career includes roles in 'Nope,' 'Scream Queens,' and 'True Jackson, VP.'
