The producer of the hit Netflix show “Stranger Things,” Shawn Levy, has given fans a glimpse of what to expect in the highly anticipated fifth and final season. In an interview with Total Film magazine, Levy described the upcoming season as “major, major, cinematic storytelling that happens to be called a TV series.” He even went as far as saying that “Stranger Things 5 is as big as any of the biggest movies that we see.”
This statement suggests that the final season of “Stranger Things” will be epic in scale and will leave fans in awe. Levy’s words indicate that the show will not hold back when it comes to delivering big-budget, blockbuster-worthy storytelling. The show has always had a cinematic quality to it, but it seems that the fifth season will take it to another level.
Unfortunately, fans will have to wait a little longer for the final season to hit their screens. Filming for the season has been put on hold due to the ongoing WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. It’s a frustrating delay for both the cast and the fans who are eagerly waiting to see how the story concludes.
However, it seems that the decision to wrap up the series was a mutual one among the cast members. Joe Keery, who plays Steve Harrington in the show, expressed that it felt like the right time to end the series. He acknowledged that the show had given him numerous opportunities and played a significant role in his career. Similarly, David Harbour, who portrays Chief Jim Hopper, described the decision as bittersweet but ultimately agreed that it was time to conclude the story.
Millie Bobby Brown, who has gained immense popularity for her role as Eleven, echoed this sentiment. She stated that she felt ready to move on from the show, comparing it to graduating high school and being ready to create her own message and live her own life.
The anticipation for the final season of “Stranger Things” continues to build, especially with Levy’s teasing of its grand scale and cinematic qualities. Fans can expect the show to deliver an epic conclusion, bringing the story of Hawkins and its extraordinary inhabitants to a satisfying end. Although the wait may be frustrating, it is clear that the cast and crew want to ensure that the final season lives up to the high expectations set by previous seasons.
