Stranger Things Animated Series Gets Named

Stranger Things: Tales From ’85 is the name of the new animated series spin-off of Stranger Things. The series is said to be taking inspiration from Saturday morning cartoons shown in the mid-80s with all of the producers of the live-action series, including Upside Down Pictures, Flying Bark Productions, and 21 Laps producing. There’s also rumors of a Stranger Things: Tokyo anime series being produced but it’s unknown right now if these will be the same or separate projects.

As someone born in the year 1985, I’m hoping the animated series is just as cranky as I am. No word yet as to if anybody from the live-action series will reprise their roles in either of the animated adaptations.
