One of these said risks that is supposedly in development is The Umbrella Academy, the superhero-based comic books series started in 2007 by Gerard Way and illustrated by Gabriel Bá.
Netflix has not yet commented on these reports by Splash Report, so it remains to be seen if the streaming service does eventually debut an adaptation of The Umbrella Academy.
The Umbrella Academy takes place in 1977 during an alternate timeline where John F. Kennedy was never assassinated.
With Netflix’s brand continuing to build and subscription numbers continuing to climb, the streaming service has been able to diversify their original content and take more risks.
