The Stranger Release Date, Cast, Plot, and Latest Information

Netflix has released a new teaser for the Australian thriller series The Stranger, which tells the narrative of Australian horror The Stranger Thing, starring Joel Edgerton and Sean Harris, debuted previously this year at the Cannes Film Festival and will become available on Netflix in October 2022.

In this series, two strangers work together with a primary suspect in a disappearance case. The plot revolves mostly around the killing and kidnapping of 13-year-old Daniel Morcombe.

Thomas M. Wright, who made his directorial debut with Acute Misfortune in 2018, wrote and directed the narrative.” With The Stranger,” he stated that he wanted to develop a psychological murder mystery that brought people into a secret realm – a movie that was precise and realistic in its realism, but also engaging and cinematic.  A movie that claimed your time and money.

A movie that you can sink into and perhaps fall into. The movie is based on two individuals who didn’t know the sufferer but dedicated years of their life – and their physical and mental well-being – to them; because, while abuse is the catalyst for this movie, it is not its topic. Its subject is interpersonal relationships. That is to say, this is a picture marked by compassion.

Wright also stated, “It is unique for an original Australian movie to debut in the Official Selection at Cannes and then be presented to the biggest audience worldwide as a Netflix picture.” We could not be more proud of this picture, and we’re thrilled to be working with Netflix to bring it to a global audience.”

The Stranger is produced by See-Saw Films, Anonymous Content, and Blue Tongue Movies, whose creator Joel Edgerton co-stars with Sean Harris.
