The Twilight Zone Episode Five Preview: "The Wunderkind"

The next episode of The Twilight Zone hits CBS All Access next Thursday and this one is about to get political, but not in the way you might expect. "The Wunderkind" will be the fifth installment of the revival series, following last week's episode featuring The Walking Dead alumnus Steven Yeun, titled "The Traveler." Give the official trailer for the new episode a watch above.

"The Wunderkind" stars John Cho (Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle, Star Trek films) as a down-on-his luck campaign manager and Jacob Tremblay (Before I Wake, The Predator) as a kid he is trying to get elected as President of the United States. The cast also includes Allison Tolman and John Larroquette.

Jordan Peele is executive producing this reboot for the CBS All Access streaming platform and also serves as the show's host, filling the shoes of the legendary Rod Serling, who created the original series back in 1959, a role he is not taking lightly.

The Twilight Zone's first four episodes are streaming now with a new one arriving each Thursday. Stay tuned to Dead Entertainment for all of the latest on this series.
