Amazon has ordered a new Nazi hunter show produced by Jordan Peele.

The series is called The Hunt and follows a brand of Nazi hunters who are living in 1977 New York City. The hunters discover that there are hundreds of Nazis who are actually living in the United States and who are planning to create a Fourth Reich in the country.

The hunters are out on a mission to bring these Nazis to justice in order to prevent a genocide from happening. The show will draw from real life events and is created by David Weil.

“When David Weil first shared The Hunt with me, I immediately knew that we had to be involved,” Peele said. “Its cathartic. Its noir. It’s frighteningly relevant. It’s exactly what I want to see on television. I am thrilled to be working with Amazon in bringing this incredible vision to the world.”
