Our Take On The Boroughs Cast
The Ensemble Has Taken Shape
Since the series is set in a retirement community and the first group of actors cast were all over the age of 60, it was speculated thatThe Boroughswould beStranger Thingswith an older cast, seemingly transporting the show’s premise to a retirement community. However, sincethe newer group of actors is all in their 30sand could even be playing younger characters, that comparison doesn’t appear to be entirely accurate. Although the heroes inThe Boroughsare a bit older than the kids fromStranger Things, they can be just endearing as a group of quirky misfits.
