Netflix’s Winona Ryder-starrer ‘Stranger Things’ Premieres This July
“Stranger Things,” set in Indiana, is a love letter to the ‘80s classics that captivated a generation.
This weekend Netflix announced their plans for a trio of new projects, including “Kong,” “Black Mirror” and “Jessica Jones.”
Now, adding to the growing list of originally programming, Netflix will premiere “Stranger Things”globally on Friday, July 15, 2016 at 12:01am PT.
The new drama series written and directed by Matt Duffer and Ross Duffer (“Wayward Pines,” “Hidden”) consists of eight, one-hour long episodes.
“In the series, a young boy vanishes into thin air. As friends, family, and local police search for answers, they are drawn into an extraordinary mystery involving top secret experiments, terrifying supernatural forces, and one very strange little girl.”
“Stranger Things” stars Winona Ryder (“Show Me a Hero”), David Harbour (“Suicide Squad”), Finn Wolfhard (“The 100, Aftermath,” “The Resurrection”), Millie Brown (“BBC’s Intruders,” “Once Upon A Time,” “NCIS”), Gaten Matarazzo (“The Blacklist”), Caleb McLaughlin (“The Lion Kingon Broadway”), Noah Schnapp (“Bridge of Spies,” “The Peanuts Movie”), Natalia Dyer (“After Darkness,” “Hannah Montana: The Movie”), Charlie Heaton (“Shut In,” “Urban and the Shed Crew”), and Matthew Modine (“Weeds,” “Proof”).
The Duffer Brothers are writing, directing and showrunning the series, and will serve as executive producers along with Shawn Levy and Dan Cohen via their 21 Laps entertainment banner (The Spectacular Now, Night At The Museum, Real Steel, Date Night).

When best friends Glen (Stephen Dorff) and Terry (Louis Tripp) stumble across a mysterious crystalline rock in Glen’s backyard, they quickly dig up the newly sodden lawn searching for more precious stones. Instead, they unearth The Gate — an underground chamber of terrifying demonic evil. The teenagers soon understand what evil they’ve released as they are overcome with an assortment of horrific experiences. With fiendish followers invading suburbia, it’s now up to the kids to discover the secret that can lock The Gate forever . . . if it’s not too late.
If you’ve never seen The Gate, it’s now streaming on Prime Video and Tubi.
