Actor Finn Wolfhard has shared intriguing details about Stranger Things Season 5. In his recent interview with Collider, the on-screen Mike Wheeler teased what to expect from the upcoming season. Although, he stressed about not knowing all the answers about Season 5’s end.
Stranger Things is considered one of Netflix’s flagship shows. Debuted in 2016, the Duffer Brothers’ creation has shattered numerous viewership records since its arrival on the streaming platform. It also significantly augmented the popularity of stars, such as Millie Bobby Brown, Finn Wolfhard, Gaten Matarazzo, Caleb McLaughlin, Noah Schnapp, and more.
Wolfhard shared his excitement about Season 5 in an interview with Collide. This is what he said:
“Well, I think it answers an insane amount of questions about the lore of Stranger Things, the world-building. I think a lot of people will be happy with getting back– It’s the last season, so we kind of want to get back to the roots of why the show was so special in the first place, and why the dynamics are so special in the first place, and sort of getting back to that. It’s gonna be really exciting. I’m excited, obviously, to go back and shoot it. I think it’s gonna be very sad, but I’m also just excited, as a fan, to get into it, and I’m excited to see where everyone– I didn’t even know how it ends yet, truly. I’ve only read the first three, so we’ll see. But yeah, I’m excited to see where all the characters’ journeys go.”
We all know that Season 5 will be the last entry in Stranger Things. Therefore, we need answers to several important questions before the show culminates.
First, Season 5 needs to answer how Upside Down was created. Who is responsible for creating that horrifying place? The last season showed that Eleven opened the gate of the Upside Down and sent Henry Creel there through her powers when she was in Brenner’s care. It is important to understand the origins of that dreadful place. This will aid Eleven and the rest of her gang in coming up with a plan to defeat Vecna once and for all.
Fans may even witness Dustin dealing with the grief of losing Eddie in the forthcoming season. The former was the one who first showed his support to Eddie when the rest of Hawkins’ residents believed that he was the reason behind Chrissy’s murder. In addition, it will be interesting to see what happens to Jonathan and Nancy’s relationship as the cracks in their relationship were clearly visible in Season 4.
The talks about the Duffers not concentrating on Steve’s love life have gained significant attention as well. Fans want a happy ending for him as he is one of the most popular characters in the show. Will he find his true love in Season 5? Or the Duffers have planned something different for him?
The principal photography of Stranger Things Season 5 was scheduled to commence in May this year. However, the production has been delayed indefinitely by Netflix due to the ongoing WGA strike. The final season will consist of eight episodes. Stay tuned for more updates.
