Key And Peele Team Up With Vine Star King Bach For New Cop Comedy

The comedy duo powerhouse Key and Peele are at it again.

Comedians Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele, known for their hilarious show on Comedy Central "Key & Peele," are reportedly working a new comedy series with social media superstar Andrew Bachelor, known on Vine as " King Bach."

Key and Peele are both executive producers for the new comedy and working with writer and producer Andrew Rubens from "Key & Peele"to bring it to life, according to Deadline. The untitled series is loosely based on one of Bachelor's characters from Vine, an undercover cop who takes down his childhood bullies.

According to Business Insider, Bachelor is Vine's most popular user with 14 million followers and more than 5 billion video loops to date. His crossover from Internet fame to Hollywood has been successful, so far, with his recurring roles on shows such as "The Mindy Project" and even an appearance on "Key & Peele."

Key and Peele have a few other projects on their list, too, after they announced in July that they will not be returning to Comedy Central.

The comedy duo are producing a "Police Academy" reboot and have reportedly partnered with producer Judd Apatow for a new feature length film.
