Remember Keanu? Here's A Few Things You Didn’t Know About This Kitty And His Crazy Movie!

According to Peele, seven kittens were used in the filming of this movie.

Method Man plays a character named Cheddar, clearly a reference to his work on The Wire as Cheese.

According to the guys, the plot similarity to John Wick is just a coincidence, though they're big fans of Keanu Reeves.

Keanu Reeves does have a cameo in voiceover.

...kitten in it at all! They wrote him in later.

Part of the inspiration for the cat was the phenomenon of gangsters owning exotic pets.

Another part of the inspiration? The fact that cats are so popular online!

The kittens on the shoot were trained with food, in order to do specific actions (as far as we know, Key and Peele were NOT trained with food).

The director, Peter Atencio, spent some time photoshopping the kitten into Oscar posters from last year. This is one of the best.

The filmmakers did the best they could to use shelter pets in the project. One of their goals is to promote shelter adoption.
