Comedy legends Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell are set to star in a new horror-comedy film, "Kenan & Kel Meet Frankenstein", which promises to deliver a fresh take on the classic monster story. The film follows two delivery drivers who unwittingly awaken Frankenstein's monster when they stop at a creepy castle for their routine drop-off.
Thompson and Mitchell will not only star in but also produce the film, marking their first joint project since reuniting for "Good Burger 2" in 2023. The comedy duo has previously collaborated on several projects, including the Nickelodeon made-for-TV movie "Two Heads Are Better Than None", which aired as a finale movie for their beloved sitcom "Kenan & Kel".
"We're excited to bring a fresh take on a classic monster story and have some fun doing it," Thompson said. Coming back together always feels natural, and this lets us tap into everything people love about our dynamic while trying something totally new," added Mitchell. The film is described as "funny, it's scary, and it's a great ride" - exactly what fans of the duo would expect.
The screenplay for the new film will be written by Jonah Feingold ("At Midnight," "31 Candles"), with Thompson and John Ryan Jr.'s Artists for Artists co-producing alongside Range Media Partners. The project is set to begin production this summer, with a sales deal handled by Range Media Partners.
"First it was Abbott and Costello, then Pryor and Wilder. Kenan and Kel," said Ryan Jr. "Think 'Shaun of the Dead' meets 'Scooby-Doo.'" With Thompson and Mitchell at the helm, fans are in for a treat that promises to be both nostalgic and fresh.
The announcement made during Amazon's sports talk show "Good Sports" has generated excitement among fans, who are eagerly anticipating their next collaboration. With a mix of comedy, horror, and adventure, "Kenan & Kel Meet Frankenstein" is shaping up to be an unforgettable experience for the beloved duo.

this new movie sounds like so much fun!!! 
i cant wait 2 see kenan & kel in a horror-comedy film, their dynamic is always on point 
plus frankenstein's monster is just too iconic 
its gonna be a great ride 
we need this ASAP!! 
range media partners are handling sales, fingers crossed they get it made soon 
. Comedy-horror can be a tough combo, and I hope they don't sacrifice laughs for scares. With Kenan & Kel's dynamic, it's got potential, but I'm worried about the pacing. Also, why did they choose a castle as the creepy location? It's been done before 
. Still, if anyone can make it work, it's these guys. They've got a great track record of creating fun content together 
.
. Can you imagine Kenan & Kel teaming up to take down Frankenstein's monster? 
The chemistry between those two is still so on point and I'm here for it! 
I mean, what's with the title? "Meet Frankenstein"? Sounds like they're trying too hard to be clever. I need some info on this Jonah Feingold dude who wrote the screenplay - what's his track record with horror-comedies? And how do we know these guys aren't just cashing in on their nostalgia? 
Thompson and Mitchell are great, don't get me wrong, but can they actually deliver a fresh take or is it just gonna be more of the same old Kel-astic shenanigans? 
I'm low-key hyped about this new horror-comedy film! Kenan & Kel are killing it as producers and stars - they've got that magic combo down pat 
. And a 'Shaun of the Dead' meets 'Scooby-Doo' vibe? 
️
Sign me up for a laugh-out-loud good time with some spooky vibes 
. The fact that they're reuniting after "Good Burger 2" is already giving me nostalgia overload 
It's gonna be a blast from the past with some spooky laughs thrown in. Can't wait to see what Jonah Feingold comes up with, "Shaun of the Dead" meets "Scooby-Doo" sounds like an amazing combo 
. Let's get this production started ASAP! 
Can't wait to see the chemistry between these two legends on screen again. It's like they're making 'Good Burger' but instead of burgers, it's all about monsters & laughs
