There's a new Netflix series being filmed in Downtown Newark. The six-part emotional thriller "Eric" was filming at the corner of Halsey and Central Avenue last week. The series is about a puppeteer who snaps when his 9-year-old son suddenly vanishes.
"Eric" stars Benedict Cumberbatch, who most famously starred in the Marvel movie "Dr. Strange." Also starring in the series is Clark Peters who grew up in Englewood. The series is set to be released sometime next year.
