With Stranger Things 5 set to be the last in Netflix’s flagship series, it is understandable that they’d want something to fill the sizeable gap it will leave behind.
To that end, they’ve recruited Stranger Things creators Matt and Ross Duffer to produce a brand-new series from up-and-coming television writer Haley Z. Boston.
Boston is likely best known for writing an episode of Guillermo del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities entitled The Outside.
Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen will see Boston act as an executive producer alongside The Duffer Brothers, as well as serving as showrunner on the project.
In an official synopsis released alongside the announcement, Something Very Bad is Going to Happen is described as:
“An atmospheric horror series set at a wedding, following a bride and groom in the week leading up to their ill-fated nuptials. That’s not a spoiler – just read the title…”
In a statement confirming their involvement, The Duffer Brothers had the following to say about the project:
“We were knocked flat when we first read Haley’s script. She is a major new talent with a singular voice — her writing is twisted, terrifying, funny, and just… very Haley. We feel so lucky to be producing her first show, and we can’t wait to share her vision with the rest of the world. “
Currently no premiere date has been issued for Something Very Bad is Going to Happen, but we’ll be on the look-out for further updates.
