And now, let us begin...
After 3 long years, the kids from Hawkins are finally back.
There are new supernatural mysteries to uncover, new beastly foes to square off against and
a new government conspiracy making things even trickier to untangle in Stranger Things
4, which came back this past Friday.
Quite frankly, the less you know about the season better, but you can believe that the
comparisons to Game of Thrones are not overstated.
This season is bigger than any of the other seasons, by a considerable margin, with storylines
playing out all over the country and some overseas.
Unlike other seasons, this season is broken up into two chunks, the first seven episodes
are now streaming, with the final two episodes coming on July 1.
TheWrap recently sat down with Ross and Matt Duffer, the creators of the show who are also
the series’ head writers and directors.
The Duffer Brothers discussed the vibe of season 5 and revealed that Stranger Things
5 won’t take that long to come out compared to Stranger Things 4.
When asked about how they pitched it to Netflix, Ross Duffer said:
“It’s our process but it’s just like, we really just try to focus on one season
at a time.
We do have an outline for Season 5 and we pitched it to Netflix and they really responded
well to it.
I mean, it was hard.
It’s the end of the story.
I saw executives crying who I’ve never seen cry before and it was wild.
And it’s not just to do with the story, just the fact that it’s like, Oh my God,
this thing that has defined so many of our lives, these Netflix people who has been with
us from the beginning, seven years now, and it’s hard to imagine the journey coming
to an end.
But we wrote it during the pandemic shutdown, the outline for 5, and then I haven’t even
honestly looked at it because it’s just too overwhelming.
We’ll get into it.”
Right after that, Matt Duffer said:
“I don’t think it’ll be as long, though.
And the main reason I’m saying that, I’ll probably be proven wrong, but, is that the
final few are going to be more like “Return of the Jedi” in that…They’re going from
the beginning.
There’s going to be less ramp up.
And I think people will understand what I’m talking about when they see the end of this
season.
It’s like, we’re just going.”
It seems like Stranger Things 5 will jump straight into the action without the type
of buildup that every season has had so far.
On top of that, with the scripts being completely written, one has to wonder if season 5 will
come out much earlier than we think.
They have yet to begin filming, but if they film this fall, there’s a good possibility
that season 5 could come out in late 2023.
My bet is that Stranger Things season 5 will come out in the summer of 2024, seeing how
every season on average takes two years to come out.
Seasons 2 and 3 came out in 2017 and 2019, and the original release date for Stranger
Things 4 would’ve been last year.
As for the plot of season 5, we practically don’t have any guesses as for what it could
be since season 4 volume 2 has yet to come out.
With that said, I think it should have a bigger time jump to adjust the characters’ ages
with their actors.
With that said, we shall wait and see when more news for season 5 comes out.
Overall, super exciting times.
And that is all that we have for today.
