Looks like the Stranger Things family isn’t saying goodbye just yet. Fan-favorite duo Millie Bobby Brown and David Harbour are officially reuniting, but this time, they’re swapping the Upside Down for the world of espionage. The Emmy-nominated stars, who won hearts as Eleven and Jim Hopper, are set to play daughter and father once again in an upcoming Netflix spy drama series from A24. They’ll both also serve as executive producers on the series, which comes from acclaimed Adolescence writer Jack Thorne and has already landed a straight-to-series order.
Per Netflix, “In the series, disgraced FBI agent turned security expert Matt Wolfe (Harbour) is drawn back into the world he left behind when his estranged daughter, Rebecca (Brown) — now an FBI agent determined to follow in his footsteps — vanishes on a mission, forcing him to return to a field that has evolved beyond him.”
“We are delighted to bring this spy drama to life with an extraordinary group of talent we’ve been fortunate to collaborate with before. Jack Thorne’s ability to find the deeply human story inside a thriller is unmatched, and watching Millie Bobby Brown and David Harbour reunite — this time as estranged father and daughter on opposite sides of a crisis — is something audiences are going to love. A24 is the perfect partner to bring this story to our members around the world,” says Jinny Howe, Netflix head of scripted series, US and Canada.
Jake Bongiovi and Robert Brown will executive produce for PCMA Productions, alongside Joe Hipps and Patrick McDonald for Cut To and KC Wenson for Bravo Axolotl.
