Netflix has once again captured the attention of horror enthusiasts with the announcement of a new series titled “Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen.” This spine-tingling show is set to be a must-watch, especially with the involvement of the Duffer brothers, the creative minds behind the global phenomenon “Stranger Things.”
A wedding to remember: the plot thickens
The official logline for “Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen” describes it as an atmospheric horror series set at a wedding, following a bride and groom in the week leading up to their ill-fated nuptials. The title itself hints at the ominous events that are bound to unfold, ensuring viewers are on the edge of their seats from the very beginning.
The mastermind behind the series is Haley Z. Boston, who not only created the show but also serves as the executive producer and showrunner. Boston’s previous work includes writing for Netflix’s “Guillermo del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities” and “Brand New Cherry Flavor,” as well as Amazon’s “Hunters.” Her directorial debut, the short film “Beach Logs Kill,” premiered at SXSW earlier this year, showcasing her unique and riveting vision.
A dream team of executive producers
Joining Boston in bringing this chilling tale to life are the Duffer brothers and Hilary Leavitt, who will executive produce via Upside Down Pictures. Andrea Sperling also joins the team as an executive producer. Both Sperling and Upside Down Pictures are under overall deals at Netflix, ensuring a seamless collaboration.
Peter Friedlander, vice president of scripted series (US & Canada) for Netflix, expressed his excitement about the project, stating, “We’re thrilled to collaborate once again with dream partners Matt, Ross, and Hilary to bring this unexpected and spine-tingling story to life through Haley’s uniquely riveting vision.”
The Duffer brothers echoed this sentiment, adding, “We were knocked flat when we first read Haley’s script. She is a major new talent with a singular voice — her writing is twisted, terrifying, funny, and just… very Haley. We feel so lucky to be producing her first show, and we can’t wait to share her vision with the rest of the world.”
