Production

Development

In December 2012, it was announced that Bryan Singer had finalized a deal to develop, executive produce, and potentially direct a third revival of The Twilight Zone for CBS Television Studios. At the time of the announcement, the production had yet to hire a writer, begun being shopped to networks and was still finalizing a deal with the Serling estate.[1][2] On March 7, 2013, it was reported that a writer was in negotiations to join the series.[3] By 2016, Simon Kinberg and Craig Sweeny had joined the production and CBS was weighing whether to shop the project to other networks or streaming services or to place it on their own CBS All Access. Kinberg eventually left the project to write and direct the film Dark Phoenix and Singer and Sweeny soon dropped out as well.[4]

On November 2, 2017, it was announced that CBS was redeveloping the revival for their streaming service CBS All Access. Additionally, it was reported that Jordan Peele was in talks to executive produce the series through his production company Monkeypaw Productions and that Marco Ramirez was in talks to serve as showrunner.[4][5] On December 6, 2017, it was announced that CBS had given the production a series order. Peele and Ramirez were confirmed to executive produce alongside Simon Kinberg, Win Rosenfeld, Audrey Chon, Carolyn Serling, and Rick Berg. Peele, Ramirez, and Kinberg were also set to collaborate on the series' premiere episode. Production companies involved with the series were slated to consist of CBS Television Studios, Monkeypaw Productions, and Genre Films.[6]

On August 6, 2018, it was confirmed that the first season would consist of ten episodes. Additionally, it was reported that the production had established a writers' room and completed concepts, outlines, and scripts for the first season in various stages of development. The series was not planned to have a formal showrunner but director Greg Yaitanes was set to be in charge of overseeing continuity among episodes.[7] On September 20, 2018, it was announced that, in addition to executive producing, Peele would serve as the series' narrator and host.[8] On October 2, 2018, it was announced via a promotional video for the series that Gerard McMurray was directing an episode with Mathias Herndl serving as his director of photography.[9] On November 15, 2018, it was reported that Alex Rubens would write an episode of the series.[10]

On April 29, 2019, the series was renewed for a second season.[11] In January 2020, CBS All Access revealed episode information on six of the ten episodes of the second season.[12] In May 2020, information on the final four episodes of the season were revealed.[13]

Casting

In October 2018, the production company announced that Sanaa Lathan and Adam Scott had been cast in episode-starring roles; Lathan would appear in an episode titled "Rewind"[14] and Scott in an episode titled "Nightmare at 30,000 Feet", a remake of the original series episode "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet".[15] In November, Kumail Nanjiani was announced in an episode-starring role.[10] In December, John Cho, Allison Tolman, Jacob Tremblay, Erica Tremblay, Steven Yeun, and Greg Kinnear were announced: Cho, Tolman, and the Tremblays for roles in an episode titled "The Wunderkind",[16] and Yeun[17] and Kinnear in "The Traveler" (broadcast as "A Traveler").[18] In January 2019, DeWanda Wise, Jessica Williams, Lucinda Dryzek, Jefferson White, Jonathan Whitesell, Taissa Farmiga, Rhea Seehorn, Luke Kirby, Ike Barinholtz, and Percy Hynes White were announced: Wise, Williams, Dryzek, White, and Whitesell would appear in one episode,[19] while Farmiga, Seehorn, Kirby, Barinholtz, and Hynes-White would be featured in another.[20] In February, Ginnifer Goodwin, James Frain, and Zabryna Guevara were announced as cast for "Point of Origin".[21] The full trailer revealed that Tracy Morgan, Glenn Fleshler and Chris Diamantopoulos would make guest appearances.[22] It was revealed through the official Twitter page that Seth Rogen would appear in an episode.[23] In March, the casting of Zazie Beetz and Betty Gabriel for one episode was announced,[24] while Chris O'Dowd and Amy Landecker would appear in "The Blue Scorpion".[25] Damson Idris was then announced to appear in "Replay", the episode previously titled "Rewind".[26]

In January 2020, several cast members for the second season were announced, which included: Morena Baccarin, Tony Hale, Billy Porter, Christopher Meloni, Joel McHale, Jimmi Simpson and Gillian Jacobs.[12] In May 2020, another round of castings were revealed, which included: Topher Grace, Jurnee Smollett and Damon Wayans Jr.[13]

Filming

Principal photography for season one began on October 1, 2018, in Vancouver, British Columbia,[27] and concluded on March 20, 2019.[28]

The producers chose to make the series in color instead of black and white. Executive producer Simon Kinberg stated that the team "wanted to do something to honor the essence and sensibility and style of the original without going so overboard that we were doing a karaoke version of the original."[29] However, the series was also made available to watch in black and white.[30] For the opening seqence, executive producer Simon Kinberg stated that imagery was chosen that reflected the original television series, something used in place of a black-and-white color scheme.[31]

Filming for the second season was scheduled to commence from October 6, 2019, to March 16, 2020, in Vancouver.[32]

Release

On January 30, 2019, it was announced during the Television Critics Association's annual winter press tour that the series would premiere on April 1, 2019.[33] A black-and-white version of the first season was released on May 30, 2019.[34] The second season was released in its entirety on June 25, 2020.[35]

Marketing

On February 3, 2019, a teaser trailer for the series aired during the telecast of Super Bowl LIII. The commercial played as though it was interrupting CBS' feed of the game and it featured host Jordan Peele standing in an empty Mercedes-Benz Stadium.[36] Another trailer was released on February 21.[22]

Reception

Critical response

Season 1

On the review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the first season holds an approval rating of 70% based on 87 reviews, with an average rating of 7.39/10. The website's critical consensus reads, "The Twilight Zone explores the strangeness of the modern world through Rod Serling's winning formula, creating a thought-provoking—if not always spine-tingling—showcase for Jordan Peele and his exceptional crop of collaborators."[37] Metacritic assigned the first season a weighted average score of 60 out of 100 based on 37 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews."[38]

The BBC gave it a positive review and said: "It's possible that ... Rod Serling and Jordan Peele switched places. As co-creator and on-screen host of the new version, he [Peele] updates the series while capturing the original's essence."[39] The Week was more mixed in its review, calling the first episodes "unforgivably long", but also saying that the series stays "true to the ethos of The Twilight Zone" and that "the episodes are free-standing and timeless".[40] The Verge also gave it a mixed review, praising Jordan Peele as the narrator, but saying the series should try to step away from the original.[41] The Atlantic was more critical, comparing it to the original series, stating, "[w]ith the exception of one superior episode, 'Replay', it's hard to conceive that an artist as prodigiously talented and thoughtful as Peele is creatively involved at all."[42]

Season 2

The second season—based on three episodes sent to critics ("Meet in the Middle", "The Who of You" and "You Might Also Like")—have received mixed reviews from critics. On Rotten Tomatoes, the second season holds an approval rating of 67% based on 18 reviews, with an average rating of 6.29/10. The website's critical consensus reads, "The Twilight Zone sophomore season shines when it dares to be bold, but long runtimes and predictable plotting hold it back from reaching its full potential."[43] Metacritic assigned the second season a weighted average score of 55 out of 100 based on 6 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews."[44]

Kristen Lopez of IndieWire gave the three episodes a collective grade of "B-" and wrote, "These episodes certainly feel more strongly written than Season 1, and if the editing tightens up like it did before, these new entries could be amazing. It'll be hard for any other episode to be better than 'You Might Also Like', though, which is a pure masterpiece."[45] Brian Tallerico of RogerEbert.com wrote that "every episode in this trio disappoints to varying degrees".[46]

Accolades

For the 71st Primetime Emmy Awards, Kumail Nanjiani received a nomination for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series.[47]
