For ten years, the creators of Stranger Things, Matt and Ross Duffer, have been building towards a massive showdown in Hawkins. Their show became a huge hit when it premiered in 2016, gaining incredible popularity even as more and more TV options emerged. However, the Duffer brothers realized it wouldn’t be believable if the town’s residents continued to ignore the constant supernatural dangers. So, for a long time, they kept the most intense conflicts contained to places like empty malls and remote prisons. Now, with the fifth and final season of Netflix’s most popular show, they’re finally ready to bring the chaos directly to the center of town.
I visited the Atlanta set of the show in July 2024, right in the middle of filming – around day 135. There were between 400 and 500 people working on set that day. Outside the library, nearly 100 extras in camouflage were relaxing and enjoying shawarma from the craft services table, near props made to look like bloodied bodies. Stunt performers were preparing to be launched into the air by crew members wearing gray suits and orange markers on their heads – these would later become the terrifying monsters known as Demogorgons thanks to computer-generated imagery. And this wasn’t even the most elaborate scene they were filming all year! According to executive producer and director Shawn Levy, the sets were just as massive and detailed as those he’s worked with on Marvel films. He explained that even though it’s a television series, the storytelling is truly epic in scope. Levy had just finished directing his latest episodes of *Stranger Things* after wrapping up *Deadpool & Wolverine* and before starting work on a *Star Wars* movie.

When I visited the set, the Duffer brothers were filming a long, continuous shot by piecing together several smaller scenes. Inside a fake, rundown Radio Shack, they yelled “Action!” Finn Wolfhard, who plays Mike and is now 22, guided a group of children – one wearing an “E.T. Phone Home” t-shirt – to safety. According to visual effects supervisor Michael Maher, almost everyone standing in the scene would eventually appear to die, leaving only the children alive. After ninety minutes and three attempts, Wolfhard reviewed the footage on the Duffer brothers’ monitors and said it looked great. Ross Duffer agreed.
In 2013, the creators of *Stranger Things* envisioned a series reminiscent of beloved childhood films like *Stand by Me* and *E.T.*, unaware it would become a massive financial success. Since 2020, when Parrot Analytics began tracking data, the show has reportedly gained Netflix 2 million new subscribers and generated over $1 billion in revenue. Each new season has also become more expensive and elaborate. As Matt Duffer explains, this creates pressure: each installment needs to outperform the last to justify the increasing budget and scope of the show.
Ross admitted they were anxious about Season 4, which was incredibly expensive to produce – around $30 million per episode, totaling $270 million for the whole season. Despite the high cost, it became the most-watched season on Netflix, racking up 1.8 billion viewing hours. Ross explained they were relieved the season performed so well, as they didn’t want to have to reduce the scope of their final season.

Matt notes that a shorter final season was also considered, highlighting the various options they explored. While Netflix hasn’t revealed the exact cost of the final season, Puck reported it was around $50 to $60 million per episode, totaling almost $500 million – nearly twice the budget of the previous season. As Levy explains, Netflix doesn’t have unlimited funds, but they were willing to invest significantly in the show.
As a TV critic, I’ve seen a huge change in what networks are willing to spend over the last nine years. Netflix is leaning heavily into reality TV and international shows to save money, Disney’s pulling back on its expensive Marvel projects, and even Apple, despite dropping serious cash – reportedly $150 to $200 million per season – on shows like *The Morning Show* and *Severance*, seems to be tightening its belt. Everyone’s looking for that prestige drama, like *The Pitt*, that doesn’t require a nine-figure budget per episode. Basically, TV is getting smaller… except for *Stranger Things*, which is still going big. It’s a fascinating contrast.
Netflix is willing to invest heavily in *Stranger Things* because it’s their biggest hit. Even without sharing detailed viewing numbers, it’s clear the show drives significant cultural impact – from Halloween costumes and a Broadway play to an upcoming animated series and potential spin-offs. For the final season, Netflix is aiming for the same widespread cultural buzz as the *Barbie* movie, partnering with brands like Nike, Pandora, Squishmallow, *Dungeons & Dragons*, and even Palermo’s Pizza to maximize the show’s reach.
Netflix differs from companies like Disney and Warner Bros. because it doesn’t have a large collection of established stories to revisit. It only began creating its own shows and movies in 2012, meaning it relies on either licensing popular content or building new franchises from the ground up. Competition is increasing, and Netflix’s dominance is slipping. In 2021, 80% of the most-watched shows each week were Netflix originals, but that number has fallen to 52% so far this year, according to industry analyst Entertainment Strategy Guy. To keep subscribers, Netflix urgently needs more successful shows like *Stranger Things*.
The Duffer brothers recently made a surprising move that caught many people’s attention. They signed an agreement with Paramount Pictures that will allow their projects to be released in movie theaters – something they’ve always wanted, as they once told me they considered themselves primarily filmmakers. This is a significant shift away from their previous partner, Netflix, where co-CEO Ted Sarandos stated just a few months ago that most people see movie theaters as outdated.

The Duffer brothers, creators of *Stranger Things*, are hoping to expand the show’s universe on Netflix. However, the scale of that expansion, and its cost, will likely depend on how fans react to the final season. Finn Wolfhard explained in a Zoom interview that everyone involved was anxious, remembering the negative reception to the final season of *Game of Thrones*. He worried about a similar outcome for *Stranger Things*. But after reading the scripts, he and the others were confident they had created something truly special.
On the set of *Stranger Things* in Atlanta, security is tight. Drones are being used to watch for people trying to secretly film the last season. Unlike shows like *House of the Dragon* or *Shōgun*, which were based on existing books or stories, the ending of *Stranger Things* is a complete surprise – and that’s making everyone nervous about potential spoilers. A feeling of unease hangs over the entire production.
A year after filming, when I visited the editing room in Los Angeles, the Duffer brothers were still careful about revealing details. After a long search for a scene without spoilers, they showed me a funny, everyday moment of Lucas and Robin pressing an elevator button in a hospital. This doesn’t reveal much, except that Lucas is visiting Max, who remains in a coma after the events of Season 4 and is still that way halfway through Season 5. The dramatic music suggests Max will somehow be involved in the plan to defeat the villain. Matt Duffer explained that Sadie Sink, who was nominated for a Tony Award for her Broadway work, was too talented to not include. Later, when I asked Sink directly, she joked that the show wouldn’t have kept her character around unless she had a significant role to play, implying she wouldn’t have been killed off.


The editing room feels more like a college dorm, decorated with collectibles and figurines. A life-sized Eleven from *Stranger Things*, complete with her blonde wig and a box of Eggo waffles, stands guard by the door. The twin editors are seated on black couches facing a TV, and a well-loved shark plush toy rests on the floor, likely for visiting pets – and maybe a nod to director Steven Spielberg, whom they admire.
Stranger Things taps into the nostalgia of those who remember Blockbuster and Stephen King novels. The story kicks off when a boy named Will Byers vanishes, and his mother, Joyce (Winona Ryder), desperately seeks help from Sheriff Hopper (David Harbour). Will’s brother, Jonathan, teams up with his love interest, Nancy, and her boyfriend, Steve, to investigate. At the same time, Will’s friends stumble upon Eleven, a girl with extraordinary abilities who was raised in a secret laboratory. Eleven helps rescue Will from the Upside Down, a terrifying alternate dimension that threatens their town. But the dangers aren’t just monsters—the show also features shady scientists, Soviet spies, and government conspiracies.
The ultimate villain, Vecna (played by Jamie Campbell Bower), is revealed – he was a fellow patient with Eleven and has transformed into a powerful monster. He controls all the creatures in the Upside Down through a kind of shared consciousness. Season 5 begins with Vecna missing, and the group must find him while also evading the military, who are trying to hide the existence of the gateway he created between Hawkins and the Upside Down.
It’s no surprise that this all feels like something dreamed up by two kids obsessed with horror movies – that’s exactly what it is. Brothers Matt and Ross Duffer, now 41, were raised in Durham, North Carolina, by a film-loving father. They’ve been creating stories together since they were in fourth grade, even making a movie based on the card game *Magic: The Gathering*. They spent their childhood filming friends in homemade costumes, using soundtracks from Tim Burton films. After struggling to get their foot in the door in Hollywood – including writing for the TV show *Wayward Pines* and creating a film that sat on a shelf for years – they decided to create their own opportunities. Despite pitching their show to about a dozen production companies, they initially faced rejection.
Shawn Levy, who was primarily known for making family films like *Night at the Museum*, wasn’t involved in television. However, in 2015, he received a compelling proposal for a limited series called *Montauk*. The proposal featured imagery from classic movies like *A Nightmare on Elm Street*, *Close Encounters of the Third Kind*, and *Firestarter*, and told the story of a boy who disappeared. Just two days later, the creators, the Duffer brothers, were meeting with Levy in his office.
The initial meetings weren’t polished, according to Levy. He described the creators as being like two brothers who were used to only talking to each other. They worked on their idea with Cindy Holland, a Netflix executive who helped launch hits like *Orange Is the New Black* and *House of Cards*. Netflix agreed to take a chance on these relatively unknown writers, with a few changes – moving the location from Long Island to a more affordable Indiana suburb – if the show could boost their limited content library. Unlike most studios that invest heavily in established franchises like *Star Wars* or *The Lord of the Rings*, Netflix’s need for original successes led them to continually invest in each season of *Stranger Things*, and it paid off. The show is now a rare example of a truly original blockbuster. “It’s given us a creative edge,” says Bela Bajaria, Netflix’s head of content. “We’ve always focused on finding the next big, innovative idea, rather than relying on existing properties.”
I remember when the Duffer Brothers first pitched their show, they promised everyone a neat and tidy conclusion – no dangling plot threads. But Netflix, clearly seeing a much bigger picture, wasn’t interested in a one-and-done deal. They actually asked the Duffers to create a massive backstory document, outlining years of potential stories, right in the middle of filming the first season! The brothers admit they weren’t thrilled about that request at the time, but it shows how much faith Netflix had in building a whole franchise around the show.
Matt explained that when they pitched the second season, they had ideas mapped out for all five seasons. Cindy Holland, however, thought that was too much and suggested they pace themselves. They were happy they listened to her advice, as it gave them a wealth of ideas to use throughout the entire show. (The creators and Holland are now working together again at Paramount, where Holland is in charge of streaming.)
The creators of *Stranger Things* initially aimed to appeal to adults who loved 80s nostalgia, but they also captured the thrilling experience of watching a Stephen King story as a child. While the show gained a young audience over time, its popularity truly soared in the spring of 2022 with the episode “Dear Billy.” In that episode, Max escapes a villain while Kate Bush’s 1985 song “Running Up That Hill” plays. Remarkably, the song reached number one on the charts 37 years after its original release.
The creators, the Duffer brothers, believe the show’s success last season was partly due to delays caused by COVID-19. These delays gave them the unusual opportunity to finish writing all the episodes before filming started. However, the pause also highlighted a running joke among fans: the young characters clearly needed bigger bikes! The actors themselves have grown up – Schnapp is about to finish college, McLaughlin has a beard, and Brown is married with a baby. While the brothers point out that many shows have actors in their twenties playing teenagers, they realized it was time to wrap things up for the fans. As Matt Duffer put it, “We couldn’t keep delaying the ending – every character’s story needed to be finished.”

While exploring a tunnel on the Atlanta set, I almost tripped over a dummy of Barb. She was covered in dark, vine-like decorations – actually spray-painted pool noodles – with purple lips and a gruesome wound on her neck. Half-buried in the dirt, it was a stark reminder of her fate. Like Will, Barb was pulled into the Upside Down during the first season, but unlike Will, she never returned. Though the show’s creators didn’t fully understand it at the time, the passionate fan campaign #JusticeForBarb showed everyone that *Stranger Things* was becoming a huge hit.
“The one note that we consistently got back was, ‘What about Barb?’ And we’re like, ‘It’s a show about Will,’” says Ross, rolling his eyes.
“Netflix kept harassing us about it,” adds Matt. “And it turns out they were right.”
You know, we really dropped the ball with Eleven, and honestly, Hawkins did too. It’s almost like all that neglect is what *made* her so well-known. And now? Well, she’s back…or at least, what’s left of her is.
Okay, so Netflix gave me a tour of the *Stranger Things* set, and it was…intense. They drove me around in a golf cart, and I ended up watching a scene that felt totally surreal. It was like a flashback, showing little Holly – Nancy and Mike’s baby sister, now played by this young actress – wandering through this crazy orange rock maze. She was wearing a beautiful, vintage-looking blue dress, which reminded me of *Alice in Wonderland*, but then…there was blood on her forehead. And as she turned a corner, she saw Henry Creel – the guy who becomes Vecna – stumbling towards her, clearly in a lot of pain. It was seriously creepy!
Hilary Leavitt, head of Duffers’ Upside Down Pictures, started explaining how the scene relates to their *Stranger Things* stage play, *The First Shadow*, which first opened in London and then came to Broadway. The old-fashioned clothes Holly is wearing are a clue, considering Henry Creel got his powers in a Nevada cave in the 1950s. Later, when I saw Henry’s sister Alice’s room, there was an *Alice in Wonderland* picture on the wall, although I was more struck by a Raggedy Ann doll with one eye missing and a creepy-looking stuffed bunny. As Leavitt continued to explain, the Duffer brothers exchanged a glance, and Matt playfully asked her not to give away any spoilers for the new season.

People on set consistently remark on the unique bond between the twins. According to Levy, they often complete each other’s thoughts and almost always seem to silently confirm each other’s opinions before speaking. Initially, the twins mostly interacted with each other, but they’ve become much more outgoing. They used to write their scenes separately and spend a long time debating changes. Now, they’ve found a much faster process: they write together in the same Google document, even though they sit on opposite sides of the room wearing headphones, and edit each other’s work in real-time. They jokingly refer to this collaborative process as operating as a single ‘hive mind.’
The creative influence of the Duffer brothers is evident throughout the show’s set design. For example, the radio station, WSQK “The Squawk” 94.5 FM, was modeled after one from their hometown and built in the Art Deco style. Production designer Chris Trujillo explains they’ve recreated many classic American locations this season, including the mall, arcade, and skating rink, and the radio station continues that theme. The Squawk will be the base of operations for the group as they fight back against the military – “where the kids are planning their mischief,” according to Trujillo. The Duffer brothers were particularly inspired by the movie *Home Alone* – especially its elaborate traps – and *Terminator 2*. In fact, Linda Hamilton, the star of *Terminator 2*, will play a government scientist named Dr. Kay this season. Costume designer Amy Parris revealed that Dr. Kay is searching for Eleven, and that she has a team called the Wolf Pack who are assisting her.
As we headed into downtown Hawkins to watch the fight scenes being filmed, we learned the show’s creators, the Duffer brothers, were trying something new: a technique called “demo-vision.” They used a drone to film the battles as if from the point of view of the Demogorgon. The show has definitely evolved since Season 1, when the characters spent time playing *Dungeons & Dragons* in a comfortable basement. Now, it requires a lot more physical activity. Finn Wolfhard explained he had to run up a hill repeatedly during filming – “like 10 times, I almost threw up!” – and even started working with a trainer for Season 5 because the action sequences are longer and more demanding.
It’s been challenging to keep the characters true to themselves as the show has become a major hit. David Harbour, who plays Hopper, explains that his character has changed from a troubled small-town police officer into a more action-oriented hero. He compares the show’s approach to classic sitcoms like *Gilligan’s Island*, where characters consistently react in predictable ways. Hopper, like Gilligan, has a core personality, but *Stranger Things* occasionally tries to surprise viewers while still keeping him relatable and comforting.
By midnight on the set, everyone – the actors and crew – had that familiar, tired but excited energy you get from being up all night, like at summer camp. The lights were incredibly bright, making it feel like morning. The Duffer brothers were discussing how many takes they needed. Matt suggested seven, but Ross thought that wasn’t enough. “How much can we push these stuntmen?” he asked, referring to the performers wearing harnesses and preparing for more action. “Let’s do thirteen.”
When my plane returns to New York very early in the morning, I can see the bright lights from the show below.
Finn Wolfhard was anxious about having to cry on camera for the first time. Being only 11 years old and new to acting when the first season started, Winona Ryder helped him through it. He explains that, as a former child actor herself, she understood the unusual situation of needing to quickly switch between acting emotionally and dealing with everyday life, like taking a test. He remembers her saying, ‘I’ve got you,’ and still uses the calming technique she taught him – taking five slow, deep breaths – to this day.
Many of the young actors feel fortunate to have had supportive adults on set. However, those adults couldn’t completely shield them from the difficulties of navigating a professional, adult environment. As Finn Wolfhard explains, filmmaking is often chaotic, and young actors often prioritize making things easy for others. They may not realize how to advocate for themselves or ask for the help they need.


Despite the show’s success, being thrust into the spotlight at age 13 was surprisingly frightening. He recalls a particularly difficult moment during Season 4, when he was dealing with a first relationship, the pandemic, and the demands of filming. While shooting a scene, he began to hyperventilate, feeling overwhelmed by the attention – many of the background actors were fans. This led to a panic attack, but his co-stars, Gaten Matarazzo and McLaughlin, both now in their early twenties, noticed and helped him, sharing that they were experiencing similar pressures.
The pressures of filming remained consistent throughout the show, but the cast dynamics improved. Brown jokes that they actually got along by the final season, having moved past earlier conflicts. They all admit to sometimes acting like kids again when together on set. McLaughlin explains that being around Gaten, Finn, and Noah brings out their inner child, often revisiting old jokes from when they were around twelve – something that came naturally since they’d all grown up together. The show’s creators, the Duffer brothers, even wrote the scripts to reflect this genuine energy and connection between the actors.
However, Sadie Sink, who plays Max, had a different experience. She explains that the creators, the Duffer brothers, really understood the personalities of the male characters. In contrast, it was harder to develop Eleven’s character because of her unusual upbringing – she was raised in a lab, has superpowers, and experienced a lot of trauma.
Millie Bobby Brown has faced challenges beyond those experienced by many young male actors, including sexism. Earlier this year, she responded to articles criticizing her appearance, specifically comments about her looking older than she is. When asked about advice for young women dealing with online harassment, she offered a thoughtful but cautious response, saying she’d share what she’s learned from her own experiences. Despite a successful career starring in major Netflix films and series, Brown has chosen a quieter life on a farm in Georgia with her husband, child, and a large number of animals – 86 at the time this was written.
Being in the public eye has been tricky for Noah Schnapp, especially because his character’s storyline mirrored his own life. His character, Will, came out as gay last season, and Schnapp himself came out when he was 18 – but it took years of struggling to answer questions about his sexuality from the media. He admits he was afraid to talk about it when he was younger. “They kept pressing me, asking if Will or I were gay,” he says. “I was only 12 or 13 and didn’t know how to respond.”
Finn Wolfhard, now 21, faced criticism for his social media posts supporting Israel following the events of October 7th. When asked if he’s learned anything from the experience regarding his online activity, he explained that he’s always been open and welcoming to his fans. He acknowledges this approach has both positive and negative sides, adding that he’s still young and learning, and his perspective might change in the future.


As the young stars of *Stranger Things* consider what comes next in their careers, the show’s creators, the Duffer brothers, have supported them whenever possible. Sadie Sink, for example, was offered a role in Darren Aronofsky’s *The Whale* while still filming Season 4. Sink appreciates that the showrunners adjusted the filming schedule to allow her to take the opportunity for two months. She explains that working on such a realistic character in a movie without special effects helped her explore new emotional depths. She believes this experience significantly impacted and improved her performance in Season 4.
Once filming wrapped for the day, many of the actors moved to rental houses in a local neighborhood, and a lot of them lived close to each other. They occasionally gathered at a nearby bar. Sadie Sink, 23, explained, “It sounds wild, but we’re all old enough to drink now.”
I see a lot of plays in the spring, including performances with Denzel Washington, Paul Mescal, and George Clooney. But nothing compares to the excitement around *Stranger Things: The First Shadow*. When a character from the show is mentioned, the audience screams so loudly you can’t hear the actors! The theater staff constantly shine lights at people trying to record the show on their phones, and one girl near me was even holding a terrifying Demogorgon stuffed animal she bought in the lobby.
I recently spoke with Kate Trefry, one of the writers for *Stranger Things* and a collaborator on *First Shadow* with the Duffer Brothers and Jack Thorne (who also worked on *Harry Potter and the Cursed Child*). She shared something amazing with me: around 60% of the people seeing the show – mostly younger audiences – are experiencing a play for the very first time! She believes the reaction is simply the excitement of seeing a live performance. She explained that if you’ve grown up watching everything on a screen, suddenly seeing action happen right in front of you is a really powerful experience.
The show starts with a dazzling display of lights and loud music, then reveals a detailed backstory for the villain Vecna, connecting it to the events of the final season. As the episode ends, Netflix displays a message encouraging viewers to watch the next season when it premieres this fall.
I was curious what Netflix was hoping for with the final season of *Stranger Things*, especially considering how expensive it must be. Bela Bajaria explained that, of course, they want it to be a huge hit – one of the most popular shows *ever* on Netflix. But it’s not just about big numbers, it’s about the fans genuinely loving it. They actually *measure* that love in really interesting ways! Like, after Season 1, Eggo waffle sales jumped by 14%, and after Season 4, searches for *Dungeons & Dragons* went up by a massive 600%! That’s how they know the show is really connecting with people.
Netflix is building excitement by releasing the new season in three parts: four episodes right before Thanksgiving, three on Christmas Day, and the final episode on New Year’s Eve. Originally, the creators intended to release the season in two parts, but Netflix suggested releasing the extra-long finale separately to prevent spoilers. According to Netflix executive Bajaria, “Everyone agreed it would be great for viewers to be able to watch and discuss the show together.”
As a film and TV enthusiast, I was reading an analysis of how finales perform, and Parrot Analytics’ Christofer Hamilton made a really good point. He thinks the series finale will be a big event *no matter* what people think of it. He basically said any attention is good attention – even if fans are angry, they’ll still tune in to watch. He used *Game of Thrones* as an example – it was super controversial, but the finale still broke viewership records. And look at *House of the Dragon* – despite the debates, it’s been a massive hit. People didn’t just stop watching!
As a huge fan of *Stranger Things*, I’m a little surprised Netflix hasn’t tried to capitalize on it more. The creators, the Duffer brothers, are working on two new shows for the streamer, but they aren’t connected to Hawkins at all. Apparently, they’ve been offered easy opportunities to expand the universe, but they’ve turned them down because they didn’t feel right for the story they want to tell. What’s interesting is that the Duffers actually *do* have an idea for a continuation of *Stranger Things*. Matt Duffer even mentioned he’s a bit surprised Netflix hasn’t pushed them harder to pitch it – they’d be happy to hear it, but thankfully haven’t been demanding.
I asked Bajaria why Netflix hadn’t considered a similar approach. She explained that both they and the show’s creators wanted to ensure all efforts were dedicated to making the final season exceptional. After a moment, she added that Netflix is prepared to collaborate whenever the creators are ready.
Fans might have to be patient for the next season of *Stranger Things*. It’s been nine years since the first season premiered, and the Duffer Brothers, who create the show, are working on a massive amount of content. They say they write at a fast pace, even though many people think they’re slow, because each season is essentially like creating five or six movies. Now that they also have a deal with Paramount, they have even more projects to manage.
I reached out to both Netflix and the creators of the show back in late September, hoping to get some insight into what the future holds. Unfortunately, neither would comment. But it’s pretty obvious to me that if the show continues in any way, the brothers absolutely *have* to be involved. As Matt explained to me a few months ago, it needs to come from them, or someone who genuinely loves the show and has a great idea – not just Netflix deciding to make more episodes for the sake of it. He feels like we’ve seen too many franchises ruined when they’re just churned out without a real vision, and I totally agree!
Sometimes, a long break can actually be a good thing. Just like Michael Keaton successfully returned to the *Beetlejuice* franchise after 36 years, there’s always a possibility the *Stranger Things* cast could revisit the show that made them famous. Gaten Matarazzo says he’d be eager to reprise his role as Dustin in the future. “I’d love to play Dustin again, but it would have to be a long time from now,” he explains. “If they called in 15 years, I’d jump at the chance.” (Reporting by Simmone Shah)
