Giants of the film world Joel and Ethan Coen are finally coming to streaming, with a new western anthology series for Netflix.

The show – titled The Ballad of Buster Scruggs, will explore the western genre in an anthology format, reports Deadline, giving the writer/directors the freedom to explore different ideas. Time Blake Nelson will feature in each episode as a continuing factor, introducing the otherwise standalone stories.

Nelson has previously worked with the Coens on O Brother, Where Art Thou?, and this is not the pair’s first rodeo. They were also behind the True Grit remake and No Country for Old Men.

The pair announced the new project by saying: “We are streaming motherf*ckers!”
