Netflix has announced a new series titled The Boroughs, created by the Duffer Brothers, known for Stranger Things. This supernatural drama shifts the focus from youthful protagonists to older characters in a retirement community in the New Mexico desert, where they confront otherworldly threats that jeopardize their time.

The cast features notable actors such as Alfred Molina, Geena Davis, Alfre Woodard, and Bill Pullman, adding significant star power to the project. The series promises to blend horror, humor, and heartfelt moments, with the Duffer Brothers expressing excitement about its potential. Additionally, they introduced another upcoming project, Something Very Bad is Going to Happen, which explores the chaos leading up to a wedding.
