tbd Just Beyond: Season 1

Anthology series debuts October 13 on Disney+

Seth Grahame-Smith (Pride and Prejudice and Zombies) adapts the R.L. Stine graphic novel series into a sort of supernatural and comedic take on the Twilight Zone episodic anthology formula. Instead of Disney+'s usual weekly rollout, all eight episodes of Just Beyond will be available to stream at once. At least two of those episodes will be directed by Marc Webb (The Amazing Spider-Man), while some of the actors who will appear include Mckenna Grace, Lexi Underwood, Henry Thomas, Nasim Pedrad, Tim Heidecker, and Riki Lindhome.
