While filming for “Stranger Things” season 5 began earlier this year, and fans have been waiting a long time for the return of Eleven and her companions, their patience should be rewarded by the last eight episodes which will be particularly long.
Stranger Things : season 5 is looking huge
When you are a fan of Stranger Thingsit is better to know how to remain patient. Launched in 2016, the Netflix series has “only” four seasons to date. Because the production time is long for this show, which is one of the most popular on the platform. Thus, two years had passed between seasons 2 and 3, then three years between seasons 3 and 4. And while a season 5 will conclude the series, it is also long awaited. The strikes of the writers and actors and actresses in Hollywood had slowed down the production, which was finally able to begin last January. We will therefore have to wait a while longer before finding Eleven and the others. Especially since for the grand finale that is being prepared, the Duffer brothers would have even more ambitions. The proof, with the recent declaration of Maya Hawke.
The actress gave some details about season 5 of Stranger Things in the podcast Podcrushed (relayed by Deadline). Aware that the time between seasons is very long for fans, she first joked that “This series was a bit cursed“. But the interpreter of Robin then sold the dream to the public by assuring that there will be enough to be satisfied with this last season. Because the next episodes will be longsimilar in length to feature films.
We’re shooting, basically, eight films. The episodes are very long.
When will season 5 be released on Netflix?
Maya Hawke continued to praise this upcoming season of Stranger Thingsensuring that the showrunners are still as involved and “serious about the quality of writing“. Which is why each season takes so long to write and then shoot. By the way, regarding season 5, Filming is expected to last about a year according to Deadline. Therefore, even if Netflix has not given a release date, the last episodes should not not arrive before 2025possibly during the summer (as for seasons 1, 3 and 4).
We can also imagine that the streaming service decides, as for season 4, to opt for a two-part broadcast. Thus, even if the entire season is not entirely finished, the first episodes will still be able to be offered while the last ones are still in post-production.
