In an interview with The Washington Post, Finn Wolfhard talked about his experience working on
the Stranger Things franchise, saying how “crazy” it is that he will potentially be the same age
in “Stranger Things 5” as his older co-stars Natalia Dyer and Charlie Heaton were when they
started the show. Wolfhard also shared “a lot” of scenes with Heaton in “Stranger Things 4,”
which was delayed by COVID and is finally due to arrive next summer,
and said they became “incredibly close” during filming. In fact, he found a new appreciation
for most of his castmates over the chaotic past two years. “When you start a show that young,
there’s drama and there’s rivalries because it’s like school. And then you become older, and you
stop caring,” he said. “I think it’s actually such an incredible thing to come back to each other and
be like, ‘Wow, I really understand you. We’re all going through this thing together. I love you.’ ”
The details of the wrapped fourth season remain a closely guarded secret,
but Ross Duffer teased that Wolfhard portrays “a more emotional Mike,”
while Matt added, “We shot this huge monologue with him toward the end of the production,
and it’s the best performance Finn’s ever given. We gave him some big, really hard-hitting stuff
this year. And he knocked it out of the park.” While “Stranger Things 5” has yet
to be officially greenlit, the Duffer brothers have insisted “4” won’t be the end of the story.
Netflix boss Ted Sarandos has also hinted at the possibility of multiple spinoff series. For his
part, Wolfhard isn’t interested in the idea of a Mike-centered vehicle. He’d prefer to revisit the
role for a movie in “like 10 years, to come back and do a ‘Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me’ thing,”
he said. “I think that they probably could do a lot with the world of ‘Stranger Things,’
like the Harry Potter books, but I don’t think I’m a part of that.” I am really interested to see
what this monologue will be about, and how we’re going to see a more emotional Mike in season 4.
I initially thought that this monologue was going to be towards the end of the season,
but “the end of production” could mean at any point of the season considering that they filmed
this out of order. Maybe Mike will do this monologue after Eleven gets captured by the
military. I am looking forward to seeing what this scene is. Overall, very exciting times.
And that is all that we have for today.
