Jordan Peele has assembled a star-studded cast for his latest project, a bizarre YouTube original comedy series called Weird City.

The trailer features some huge Hollywood names like Michael Cera, Rosario Dawson, LeVar Burton, Dylan O'Brien, Ed O'Neill, Mark Hamill, Sara Gilbert, Steven Yeun, Awkwafina, Yvette Nicole Brown, Auli'i Cravalho, and our fave Orange Is the New Black alum, Laverne Cox.

"From the mind of Jordan Peele and Charlie Sanders comes WEIRD CITY, a satirical anthology set in the not-too-distant future metropolis of Weird," the official summary reads. "In this dystopian setting of our show, the middle class has completely vanished dividing Weird City into two sections: Above the Line (The Haves), and Below the Line (The Have Nots). Presiding over the denizens of the city is the strange and mysterious Dr. Negari, who weaves all of our stories together. Each episode is a topic that pertains to present day life in America and the world: social media addiction, online dating, fitness obsession, etc. WEIRD CITY captures the unease of modern urban living, in a bizarre and peculiar lens."

Episode 1 premieres February 13 on YouTube. Watch the trailer in the video below!
