THE DUFFER BROTHERS | Writers, Executive Producers, Directors. Speakers on An Evening with Netflix.

The Duffer Brothers broke out onto the scene in late 2011 when, fresh out of college, they had multiple movie studios vying for their horror-thriller spec script HIDDEN, which landed at Warner Bros. The Duffers directed the film, which starred Alexander Skarsgard and Andrea Riseborough and was released in 2015. Shortly after, they wrote and were executive producers on M. Night Shyamalan's hit television show WAYWARD PINES. The Duffer Bros then created the worldwide phenomenon, STRANGER THINGS, for Netflix in 2016 starring Winona Ryder and David Harbour. The fourth season of the series, which they wrote, directed, and executive produced, became the most viewed season of English-language TV in a single week on Netflix with 335.01M hours viewed in its first seven days. In 2022, The Duffer Brothers announced the launch of their production company, Upside Down Pictures. The company has multiple projects in development including an all-new live-action television adaptation of the renowned Japanese manga and anime series DEATH NOTE; an original series from creators Jeffrey Addiss and Will Matthews; a series adaptation of Stephen King and Peter Straub‘s THE TALISMAN alongside Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Entertainment and Paramount Television; a new stage play set within the world and mythology of STRANGER THINGS; and a live-action STRANGER THINGS spin-off series based on an original idea.
