Netflix has confirmed a new spy series that will reunite Millie Bobby Brown and David Harbour, the duo from Stranger Things. This time, they will play a daughter and a father, but with characters different from those in Hawkins. The plot follows a former FBI agent searching for his missing daughter on a mission. For the public, this means more entertainment options with well-known actors. The series does not yet have a title or a release date.
Filming will require practical effects and real locations for the action 🎬
The production is betting on a technical approach based on real locations and practical effects, avoiding excessive use of green screens. According to sources close to the project, the filming crew plans to shoot in several European cities to give authenticity to the chases and shootouts. Harbour has mentioned that there will be hand-to-hand combat scenes choreographed by Hollywood specialists. The budget per episode is expected to exceed $8 million, similar to other action series on the platform.
Spoiler: the father will still use a walkie-talkie in the 21st century 📡
Because, of course, if Stranger Things taught us anything, it's that walkie-talkies are indestructible and work better than an iPhone in the middle of the woods. We bet the former FBI agent will use one to locate his daughter, while ignoring that GPS and tracking apps exist. Plus, surely at some point there will be a scene where Millie Bobby Brown screams his name while running in slow motion. Originality above all.
