New Duffer Brothers Sci-Fi Series “The Boroughs” For Netflix
The supernatural mystery The Boroughs, created by Jeffrey Addiss and Will Matthews (The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance), and executive produced by The Duffer Brothers, has been given a series order by Netflix.
What is The Boroughs about
A group of unlikely heroes must band together in a retirement community in the New Mexico desert to prevent an extraterrestrial threat from robbing them of the one thing they don’t have: time.
Quotes from the creatives
The Duffer Brothers: “We’ve been fans of Jeff and Will’s writing for a long time, and when they pitched us their idea for The Boroughs, we immediately knew they had something very special on their hands. While the heroes in The Boroughs have a few more years on them than the kids from Stranger Things, they are a similarly lovable bunch of misfits, and we can’t wait for you to join them on an adventure that is at turns scary, funny, and deeply touching.”
Jeffrey Addiss and Will Matthews: ”We’re thrilled to be back at Netflix. Working alongside the Duffer Brothers (who are pretty good at making shows) and their team has been a dream come true. They bring the perfect balance of heart and horror to our story. We can’t wait for audiences around the world to unlock the dark mystery buried beneath the sunny facade of The Boroughs.”
Executive Producers: The Duffer Brothers and Hilary Leavitt on behalf of Upside Down Pictures
