No, Stranger Things season 4 won't be the series' final instalment, but it won't be around for much longer. The Duffer brothers have confirmed that the next season – i.e. season 5 – will be the final one in the mainline story. Adding to the Duffer brothers' comments, executive producer Shawn Levy told ScreenRant that the duo "didn't want the show to run out of fumes" and outstay its welcome. Finally, Jonathan, Argyle, Will, Mike, and Suzie are en route to Nevada to find Eleven. Who knows who or what they'll find if they get there in time.
Dustin adopts a strange new pet, and Eleven grows increasingly impatient. A well-meaning Bob urges Will to stand up to his fears. Why apprehensive? Because, if you believe the cast and crew (not to mention what's hinted at in the official volume 2 trailer), we could be about to say goodbye to a key character or two. And not just those who only showed up in Stranger Things season 4, but anyone who's been part of the furniture since the series' first season. We hope you've got enough tissues for that inevitably tearjerking finale. At nine episodes, season 4 has a similar episode count to previous seasons of Stranger Things. It appears, then, that each episode may be feature-length in runtime to make the season as large as The Duffer Brothers claim. Refusing to believe Will is dead, Joyce tries to connect with her son. The boys give Eleven a makeover. Nancy and Jonathan form an unlikely alliance.There’s been no indication in the lead-up to Stranger Things season 4 that season 3 will have an official home video release, from Target or any other retailer. The first two sets arrived one year after their drops on Netflix, but it’s been nearly three since season 3 premiered.
The nostalgia-fuelled, '80s-set sci-fi horror/thriller became an instant classic, and Season 4 is already almost upon us, with a release date of May 27, 2022. Giving their two cents on whether one or multiple characters will bite the dust, the Duffer brothers teased that viewers should be "concerned" for everyone's welfare. In a separate discussion with Empire magazine (via IGN), Ross Duffer added: "I don’t really want to say, but I would be concerned about the characters going into Volume 2, for sure. I hope that that is sort of the sense, because it is a darker season and the kids are no longer kids. And there’s sort of an ominous feeling that things might not go well. Now, whether they do or not, you’ll have to watch.” And it seems that the Duffer brothers are up for that. Speaking to SFX Magazine (via Digital Spy), Matt Duffer said: "We haven't told anyone our plans, not even Netflix! We have some ideas. In terms of if we were to do any sort of spinoff, or any continuation ofStranger Things, for us the bar was always 'Is the idea exciting enough that we feel the pull of wanting to do it again?' I want to feel the pull of 'God I really want to do this. I feel really, really excited about this.' So that's why we're being careful about what that is and whether we move forward with it or not."Some of those hugely emotive moments sounds like it'll be between Eleven and Doctor Brenner. Teasing what's to come between the pair in volume 2, Matt Duffer told Tudum: "They have some scenes together [in Volume 2] that are, I think, the best acting either of them have ever done." Color us curious. Telekinetic young female "Eleven" has escaped the town's government facility and ends up befriending Mike, Will, Dustin, and Lucas. There’s an epic Kate Bush moment in the finale [Episode 9] that we weren’t expecting, that we kind of discovered as we were editing," he teased. "The sequence was really cool and we were happy with it, but it was missing a little something. And I was like, “Well, let’s try Kate. Because when has Kate let us down?” And it just took it to this new height. One thing we do know about season 5's plot is that we'll learn a lot more about the Upside Down. Discussing the series' creepy alternate dimension at Netflix Geeked Week 2022, Ross Duffer said: "The last remaining questions that are answered in that document [the Duffers' Stranger Things bible]. We’ve punted a couple of those to have some big reveals in season 5. And that’s really going to affect what season 5 is about.”
Whatever happens, we can expect an almighty showdown between Stranger Things' major players. According to star Joe Quinn (per Digital Spy), who plays Eddie Munson, we should prepare ourselves for a "mad symphony of chaos and horror", with the craziness of Stranger Things season 4 "turned up to 11". Color us intrigued. As the town preps for Halloween, a high-scoring rival shakes things up at the arcade, and a skeptical Hopper inspects a field of rotting pumpkins. I feel mixed about it,” the actor told Yahoo! Entertainment in June 2023 about the possibility of having an on-screen GF for Robin. “I feel like there’s that’s both a great thing, and I also love characters where their love life is not the center of their existence.” Adding his thoughts to how the scope of season 4 grows even more in volume 1, Jamie Campbell Bower (Vecna) told EW: "I'm going to toe the party line here. It gets bigger. If you thought that it was as big as it could get, it's not. It goes further, visually, story-wise, and emotionally for all the characters. It really is quite an explosive climax, let's say.Budding romance. A brand-new mall. And rabid rats running toward danger. It's the summer of 1985 in Hawkins ... and one summer can change everything. A frantic Jonathan looks for Nancy in the darkness, but Steve's looking for her, too. Hopper and Joyce uncover the truth about the lab's experiments.
