Happy Thursday, my dear strangers!
This is Mrs. Strange, and on today’s episode for Stranger Universe, I will talk about another
rumored production start date for Stranger Things 5 going around the web!
Yesterday, the anonymous gossip website Deuxmoi once again revealed a blind item about Stranger
Things season 5.
As you can see here, the message is from an unknown crew member or someone else involved
in the production of the show, stating that season 5 will begin rolling cameras on May
16, and continue doing so until sometime in early 2024.
This anonymous submission quickly spread around on social media with other accounts posting
it on their stories and timelines, but it needs to be said that this is not an official
confirmation, and we won’t know when the Duffer Brothers and Netflix will film the
final season until they announce it themselves.
As mentioned previously in one of last week’s videos, we cannot trust every word that comes
out of this account that likes to delve into celebrity news.
You can write in a random blind item and chances are that Deuxmoi will post it on her story.
Aside from that, we also have the impending writers strike across Hollywood which, according
to recent industry updates, will very likely happen at the beginning of next week.
If the writers strike ends up happening, Stranger Things season 5 will be affected.
Filming could very well be delayed if the scripts are not finished on time, and even
if they are, they won’t be able to re-edit them and polish them during this blackout
period.
With that said, it is a big coincidence that the previously rumored and unverified production
start date for Stranger Things 5 was May 15, as reported in early March thanks to the production
site “FITA.”
This new date is only one day after that original report, adding more fuel to the fire and hinting
that season 5 will begin filming in that same week, unless this was all a prank caused by
some fan out there that is parroting off from all these rumors and what Noah Schnapp has
said before in the past.
Speaking of which, Schnapp is no longer the only cast member saying that filming begins
next month.
You may have seen this short clip of Finn Wolfhard in Tokyo from a few weeks ago, saying
that he will film Stranger Things 5 in May.
Fair warning, the clip was recorded off from a TV, and the audio is a bit wonky, but here
it is.
“Well, I’m about to shoot the last season of Stranger Things which is on Netflix.
So, we should be starting that in May.”
While that may add more credence to the possibility of season 5 starting in May, the main takeaway
here is that everyone could be starting at different times.
Fans have mentioned the likelihood that Finn and Noah will start filming first before everyone
else joins later in June.
It is definitely enticing to know that Stranger Things 5 could start filming as soon as a
few weeks away, but to be honest, I think production won’t start until the first week
of June.
Also, who knows if the writers strike will stop any of that from happening.
We shall see anyways in the next couple of weeks.
Overall, very exciting times.
And that is all that we have for today!
