Production
Wes Craven at one point said he would like to remake the 1991 comedy horror film The People Under the Stairs along with The Last House on the Left and Shocker. However, after the release of the 2009 remake of The Last House on the Left, news of a remake fell dormant until 2015, when it was announced (shortly before Craven's death) that the director was developing a People Under the Stairs TV series for Syfy. On October 30, 2020, Collider reported that Jordan Peele and Win Rosenfeld signed on to produce the remake of The People Under the Stairs, under Monkeypaw Productions for Universal Pictures. In November 2023, it was reported that Ezra Claytan Daniels was hired to write the script.
