‘The Boroughs’ Creators Break Down The Netflix Series They “Could Only Do With The Duffer Brothers”
SPOILER ALERT: This piece contains some spoilers for Season 1 of The Boroughs on Netflix.
The second of two 2026 projects shepherded to fruition by Netflix and The Duffer Brothers’ shingle Upside Down Pictures, The Boroughs, has arrived on the streamer ahead of Memorial Day weekend, complete with sprawling mythology and an ensemble cast assembled to solve a mystery together.
The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance developers Jeffrey Addiss and Will Matthews created the series and serve as showrunners and executive producers. Matthews recalls getting the call from the Stranger Things creators after they formed Upside Down Pictures with Netflix and were looking for shows to produce, which served as a specific prompt for what became The Boroughs.
