Geena Davis, Alfre Woodard & Bill Pullman Among 6 Cast In Duffer Brothers’ ‘The Boroughs’

Netflix's 'The Boroughs' has set Geena Davis, Alfre Woodard, Bill Pullman and three others to star in the supernatural mystery series.

Netflix also announced today that Ben Taylor ( Sex Education) has come aboard to exec produce and direct multiple installments of the eight-episode drama, including the pilot. Created by Jeffrey Addiss and Will Matthews ( The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance), who also serve as showrunners, The Boroughs is set in a seemingly picturesque retirement community where a group of unlikely heroes must band together to stop an otherworldly threat from stealing the one thing they don’t have… time. In a statement given when the project landed a series order last April, the Duffer Brothers teased, “While the heroes in The Boroughs have a few more years on them than the kids from Stranger Things, they are a similarly lovable bunch of misfits, and we can’t wait for you to join them on an adventure that is at turns scary, funny, and deeply touching.”
