Happy Sunday, my dear strangers!
This is Mrs. Strange, and on today’s episode for Stranger Universe, I will go over theories
about who Linda Hamilton will play in Stranger Things 5!
The cast of Stranger Things 5 just expanded thanks to the addition of the 1980s icon,
Linda Hamilton.
However, the role she will portray in Stranger Things season 5 remains a mystery.
Following a three year gap, season 4 finally arrived to address lingering queries from
season 3 while unraveling some of the show's most captivating enigmas.
It also brought in new mysteries left to be resolved in season 5.
Thanks to yesterday’s announcement from TUDUM, Stranger Things 5 is now expected to
introduce new characters, encompassing adults and teenagers, who will either join the Hawkins
crew in their battle against Vecna and the Upside Down or align themselves with the enemy.
Throughout the series, Eleven and her friends have met a range of adversaries, both human
and supernatural, and season 5 may introduce additional challenges while also potentially
introducing new allies.
Joining the ongoing action in Hawkins is this mysterious new character that Linda Hamilton
will play in Stranger Things season 5.
The show’s final season was set to begin filming earlier this month, but it has been
delayed indefinitely due to the WGA strike.
With this in mind, Hamilton’s character and further details about her will most likely
be revealed once season 5 officially begins filming, along with other casting news, as
she surely won’t be the only new addition to the series.
As mentioned in previous videos, the show has featured prominent stars from the 1980s
who have portrayed characters on both the heroic and antagonistic sides.
Winona Ryder has portrayed Joyce Byers since season 1, Matthew Modine appeared as Dr. Martin
Brenner in seasons 1 and 4, Sean Astin joined as Bob Newby in season 2, and Paul Reiser
played Dr. Sam Owens.
Season 3 brought in Cary Elwes as Mayor Larry Kline, and season 4 delighted horror fans
with Robert Englund's portrayal of Victor Creel.
The show has maintained a balance in assigning significant roles to its notable actors, leaving
the possibilities open for Linda Hamilton's character.
Considering the events at the conclusion of Stranger Things 4, it's plausible that Hamilton
could be aligned with the enemies.
With the Upside Down engulfing Hawkins as part of Vecna's plan, Colonel Sullivan will
likely persist with his intentions to capture Eleven.
Linda Hamilton's character could potentially be a part of Sullivan's team, posing as a
threat that Eleven and her friends must overcome.
Hamilton already portrayed a villainous military character in the syfy series “Resident Alien.”
Maybe we could see the same type of role in Stranger Things 5?
Other fans have pointed out in social media that she could play another scientist from
Hawkins Lab, with some even going as far as naming her the next Connie Frazier, Brenner’s
right hand woman from season 1.
In our last video, I speculated that she could play an elderly citizen from Hawkins who thinks
this is the work of Satan, continuing the Satanic Panic subplot from season 4.
Quite frankly, Linda Hamilton could literally play any type of character, both good or bad.
We shall see what her role exactly is in the near future when they start filming season
5.
Overall, very enticing times.
And that is all that we have for today!
