The Boroughs marks the latest series under Netflix’s overall deal with Upside Down Pictures which includes the expansion of the Stranger Things franchise with the critically acclaimed, Olivier Award-winning play Stranger Things: The First Shadow; the psychological horror series Something Very Bad is Going to Happen; and Stranger Things 5 — the culminating season of the global cultural phenomenon.
