"It's funny to look at that pitch document," Lyonne tells EW. "It's so charming, because there's so much in it that is (different). First of all, Jordan Peele plays heavily in it as a love interest....Which is just funny to think that it's such a pre-Jordan Peele, Oscar-winning auteur era, where we're just like, 'Okay, great. So he plays the boyfriend.'"
