Netflix’s Stranger Things Season 5 Marks Halfway Completion With BTS Video

Netflix has given us our first look at the fifth and final season of Stranger Things as they hit the halfway mark of filming, and welcome Nell Fisher, Jake Connelly, and Alex Breaux to the cast.

Stranger Things Season 5 (which will be the final season of the series) began production back in January 2024.

Returning cast members include Noah Schnapp, Millie Bobby Brown, David Harbour, Winona Ryder, Cara Buono, Joe Keery, Amybeth McNulty, Charlie Heaton, Brett Gelman, Maya Hawke, Natalia Dyer, Jamie Campbell Bower, Priah Ferguson, Linda Hamilton, Gaten Matarazzo, Caleb McLaughlin, Ross Duffer, Matt Duffer, Finn Wolfhard, and Sadie Sink.

Back in June 2023, The Terminator’s Linda Hamilton also joined the cast. Work on Stranger Things Season 5 officially began in August 2022. However, it was officially delayed due to the ongoing Writers Guild of America (WGA) strike.

Back in May 2023, Stranger Things showrunners the Duffer brothers said:

“Writing does not stop when filming begins. While we’re excited to start production with our amazing cast and crew, it is not possible during this strike. We hope a fair deal is reached soon so we can all get back to work. Until then — over and out. #wgastrong.”

The first four seasons of Stranger Things are now available to stream on Netflix. There is currently no release date or release window for Stranger Things Season 5.
