Millie Bobby Brown (“Stranger Things”) and Rachel Brosnahan (“Superman”) are teaming up for “Prism,” a supernatural thriller in development at Netflix. Brown plays Cassie, a woman who can talk to the dead and struggles to figure out why “visitors” (ghosts) suddenly appear around the world. Big hooks, big canvases, and lots of spooky possibilities.
Prism is an adaptation of Nick Shafir’s Assemble Originals short story (first published in Assemble Artifacts). The series focuses on Cassie’s search for the cause of a worldwide haunting, a mystery posed at the intersection of science fiction, horror, and human grief. Think less squeaky floorboards and more ripple effects across the planet.
The team that supports it
Etan Frankel (Shameless, Joe vs. Carol) will serve as showrunner, hinting at a character-driven take on the paranormal. Brown will executive produce alongside Brosnahan and the Russo brothers’ banner AGBO (their third collaboration with Netflix).
Deadline broke the news, saying that the project is currently in development and that the prism won’t derail Brown’s previous efforts if it goes to series. Netflix declined to comment.
Executive producers include Brown through the PCMA banner. Brosnahan and Russell Kahn: Scrap Paper Pictures. AGBO’s Anthony and Joe Russo, Angela Russo-Ottostott, Scott Nemeth, and Alessandra Maman; Jack Herer and Caitlin de Risser Ellen of Assemble Media. Co-produced by Shafir in partnership with Assemble Media.
Continuing Brown’s Netflix run
For Brown, Prism extends the powerful Netflix chapter. While Stranger Things will conclude with a three-part fifth season in November-December, Enola Holmes’ series continues (with a third season scheduled for 2026), and her collaboration with AGBO, The Electric State, recently topped Netflix’s movie charts.
Brosnahan, fresh from Superman, where she played Lois Lane, will next star in and executive produce Season 2 of Apple TV’s Presumed Innocent, maintaining her early relationship with Netflix (from House of Cards to the feature film Saturn Return).
Meanwhile, AGBO has been busy juggling between streamers and studios. Marvel’s Avengers: Doomsday will wrap up in London ahead of Avengers: Secret Wars (2027), alongside a pipeline that includes The Gray Man, Season 2 of Citadel (in post-production), Netflix’s Whisperman and Amazon MGM’s The Bluff.
