Both a live-action “Stranger Things” spin-off and a “stage play set within the world and mythology” of the show are coming from Upside Down Pictures, a new production company founded by the show’s creators The Duffer Brothers. Upside Down Pictures is part of Netflix (NFLX)’s ongoing deal with Matt and Ross Duffer, who said in a statement they aim to create stories like those that inspired them growing up and “take place at that beautiful crossroads where the ordinary meets the extraordinary, where big spectacle co-exists with intimate character work, where heart wins out over cynicism.” The Duffers foreshadowed the spin-off news in February when they said the upcoming “Stranger Things 5” would be the show’s final season. “There are still many more exciting stories to tell within the world of ‘Stranger Things,” they said at the time. “
