The star of “Riverdale” and a writer of Netflix’s “The Haunting of Hill House” are joining forces for an eight episode podcast series titled “Borrasca,” Deadline reports today.
Cole Sprouse will both star in and produce the 30-minute thriller series, which was both written and created by Rebecca Klingel (“Haunting of Hill House” – Witness Marks).
“The podcast will follow Sam Walker, whose parents move him and his sister to the picturesque mountain town of Drisking, Missouri. It quickly becomes clear there may be more to the town than what they can see on the surface. When his sister suddenly disappears, Sam becomes obsessed with untangling the local lore, the juvenile rhymes and legends taking on an entirely new – and dark – meaning as more teens continue to disappear.”
“Borrasca” is expected to debut in April 2020.
