Tales From ’85 & More Get First Looks at Annecy Festival
Netflix will be bringing the first look at Stranger Things: Tales From ’85 to the Annecy International Animation Film Festival this year.
On Wednesday, June 11, Netflix will show an exclusive preview of Stranger Things: Tales From ’85, which is a new animated series executive produced by Eric Robles that will be set within the world of Stranger Things.
“We’ve always dreamed of an animated Stranger Things in the vein of the Saturday morning cartoons that we grew up loving, and to see this dream realized has been absolutely thrilling,” Stranger Things creators Matt and Ross Duffer told Tudum.
Further plot details remain under wraps at this time. A premiere date for the show has not yet been set.
