With Stranger Things season four wrapped up, and the recent announcement that season five will be the final season of the show, fans want to know what else will be coming from the world that the Duffer Brothers (Matt and Ross) created.

In a press release from Netflix today, the brothers announced their production company, fittingly named Upside Down Pictures, and that it will be led by Hilary Leavitt, who has previously worked on Orphan Black and Ozark. They say in the press release that they are working on a stage show set in the world of Stranger Things, as well as a live-action spin-off series.

Besides that, Upside Down Pictures is planning a live action television adaptation of manga/anime series Death Note, and an adaptation of Stephen King and Peter Straub's The Talisman. They have not yet announced when fans should expect the final season of Stranger Things, however.
