Interview: From The Dark Crystal to The Boroughs with Will Matthews & Jeffrey Addiss

This interview contains SPOILERS for The Boroughs! Sydnni welcomes back writers and showrunners Will Matthews and Jeffrey Addiss to discuss their brand new Netflix series The Boroughs. In this conversation, Will and Jeffrey talk about how their work on The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance helped lead to their collaboration with the Duffer Brothers, the origins of The Boroughs, and the process of creating an original sci-fi adventure about aging, time, monsters, memory, and found family. They also dive into building the show’s “Gray Rebellion,” writing older characters as heroes rather than punchlines, the real world inspirations behind the retirement community, working with an incredible ensemble cast, their cameo in the series, and the production’s sustainability efforts. The Boroughs is out now on Netflix. Contact Email – [email protected] Facebook – www.facebook.com/thedarkcrystalpodcast Instagram – www.instagram.com/darkcrystalpodcast
