The logline for the upcoming series sounds like a blend of “Stranger Things and Cocoon that sees Senior citizens saving the world from an otherworldly threat. The official logline:

“In a seemingly picturesque retirement community in the New Mexico desert, a group of unlikely heroes must band together to stop an otherworldly threat from stealing the one thing they don’t have… time.”

The six new cast additions join previously announced cast members Alfred Molina, Geena Davis, Alfre Woodard, Denis O’Hare, Clarke Peters, and Bill Pullman. In other words, “The Boroughs is shaping up to have an impressive cast.

The series hails from creators and showrunners Jeffrey Addiss and Will Matthews. Ben Taylor (Sex Education, Catastrophe) will executive produce and direct multiple episodes, including the pilot. Eight episodes have been ordered.

The Duffers executive produce along with Hilary Leavitt under their Upside Down Pictures banner, which is currently under an overall deal with Netflix.
