The Duffer Brothers have a few Netflix tasks lined up, however say The Boroughs is the one which closest matches Stranger Issues.
With Stranger Issues concluding in epic style this yr, The Duffer Brothers (that’s Matt and Ross) are going to should discover a method to fill their time; in any case, they’ve spent a decade on that present alone (though with solely 4 seasons and 34 episodes, we’d hardly think about that constant). With that, The Duffer Brothers have a few tasks happening, considered one of which is The Boroughs, one other mission in growth for Netflix. And whereas it won’t be taking viewers to the Upside Down, it does share some qualities.
The Duffer Brothers turned up on the Subsequent on Netflix occasion this week to not solely promote Stranger Issues however The Boroughs and One thing Very Unhealthy is Going to Occur, wherein they may function government producers. On these, Matt mentioned, “Of the 2 tasks, The Boroughs in all probability shares probably the most DNA with Stranger Issues as a result of it’s a few group of misfits who struggle an otherworldly evil. Solely not like Stranger Issues, it’s set in a retirement neighborhood, in order that’s one thing totally different. This time our misfits are just a little on the older aspect.

Seems like a binge to me!
