After working together on HBO’s A Black Lady Sketch Show, writer-director Bridget Stokes and series creator Robin Thede have once again partnered up for their next collaboration. According to Deadline, Stokes has signed on to helm Amazon Studios’ upcoming horror comedy film titled Killing It, which will be written by Thede.
