Netflix's Grown-Up Sci-Fi 'Stranger Things' Replacement Officially Arrives Next Week

Ten years ago, what would become the most culturally significant Netflix series premiered. Stranger Things was an immediate hit, capturing ’80s nostalgia while delivering on horror and sci-fi themes. But even more endearing were the characters who fans rooted for through the six seasons until the series ended at the beginning of 2026. Now, Netflix is looking for another hit with the same beats as Stranger Things, and the streamer has a project lined up that premieres next week, on May 21.
