Clive Barker Contributed a Ton of Original Artwork That’ll Be Seen in “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina”
Just when we thought we couldn’t possibly be more into this series.
In addition to achieving “master of horror” status as a writer/filmmaker, Clive Barker is also a prolific painter, and io9 informs us today that Barker’s original artwork will adorn the walls of the Academy of Unseen Arts in Netflix’s upcoming series, “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina”!
The site learned on their visit to the set that Barker “has contributed over 150 paintings to grace the walls of Greendale’s bewitching academy.”
“[Clive Barker and I] spoke about kind of the idea and the themes behind what we were doing here and he said, ‘Why don’t you come down, spend the weekend, take a look through all the artwork and pick out what you want?’”, production designer Lisa Soper explained to the site.
Be sure to keep your eyes peeled while watching the show later this month!
You can check out Barker’s paintings over on his official website.
“Chilling Adventures” is an hour-long drama that will reimagine the story of Sabrina the Teenage Witch as a dark coming-of-age tale that traffics in horror, the occult and witchcraft.
“This adaptation finds Sabrina wrestling to reconcile her dual nature — half-witch, half-mortal — while standing against the evil forces that threaten her, her family and the daylight world humans inhabit.”
The series is headed our way on October 26.
The Ghostbusters franchise returns to the world of animation with brand new Netflix series “Ghostbusters: Night Shift,” and the official logo has been revealed this weekend.
Expect “Ghostbusters: Night Shift” to clock in on Netflix in 2027!
Netflix previews, “Ghostbusters: Night Shift, a series from Netflix and Sony Pictures Animation based on the beloved Ghostbusters franchise, will debut exclusively on Netflix in 2027.
“The new series marks the next chapter in the franchise’s ghoul-catching legacy, bringing supernatural comedy and paranormal action back to animation.”
The upcoming animated series from Netflix will be executive produced by Ben Hibon, Elliott Kalan, Jason Reitman, Gil Kenan, Amie Karp, and Dan Aykroyd.
Reitman, son of Ivan Reitman, director of the original Ghostbusters features, and Kenan co-wrote the franchise’s most recent installments, Ghostbusters: Afterlife and Frozen Empire.
“This isn’t the first time the Ghostbusters universe has gone animated,” Netflix reminds in their press release today. “The 1980s and ’90s saw The Real Ghostbusters and Extreme Ghostbusters take over the small screen. For now, you can rest assured: If there’s something strange in your neighborhood, a Ghostbuster will be on the job — even if it’s after hours.”
