The sci-fi series “Very Strange Things” has forced Frank Darabont to end the sabbatical in which he has spent the last 11 years. In a recent interview on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the famous drama “Escape from Shawshank”, Frank Darabont explained why he decided to come out of oblivion and shoot two episodes for the fifth season of the series “Very StrangeThings”, which will be the final. According to the director, it was the basic premise of the Netflix series that convinced him that it was the right time to get back to work.
“What really moved me to forget about my retirement was that my wife and I really love the show. Today’s content is rife with creepy people who do horrible things for self-interest, whereas there’s so much soul in ‘Very Strange Things.’ It was that positive message that I responded to,” Frank Darabont explained his decision.
