Everything To Know About ‘Stranger Thing' Season 5: Trailer, Release Date & More
STRANGER THINGS. (L to R) Charlie Heaton as Jonathan Byers, Winona Ryder as Joyce Byers, Millie ... More Bobby Brown as Eleven, Noah Schnapp as Will Byers, David Harbour as Jim Hopper, Natalia Dyer as Nancy Wheeler, and Finn Wolfhard as Mike Wheeler in STRANGER THINGS. It's been three years since new Stranger Things episodes aired – and fans are counting down the days until the highly-anticipated final season. Here's everything to know (so far) about Stranger Things Season 5, including the exciting news that could be announced tonight during Netflix's TUDUM 2025. Filming for the final season of Stranger Things began in January 2024 and wrapped 11 months later in December. In an emotional Instagram post, co-creator Ross Duffer reflected on what it's been like to tell these stories for a decade and to watch the cast grow up around him. 'We've been telling this story for nearly a decade now. Many of our cast members joined us when they were kids, just ten or eleven years old. It wasn't just a show for them—it was a defining part of their childhood. They've grown up before our eyes, becoming more than actors—they've become family,' he said. The co-creator added that everyone involved in Season 5 'was determined to bring this story to a satisfying conclusion. They poured their hearts and souls into it, and we couldn't be more proud of what they've accomplished.' STRANGER THINGS. (L to R) Millie Bobby Brown as Eleven, Noah Schnapp as Will Byers, Finn Wolfhard as ... More Mike Wheeler, Charlie Heaton as Jonathan Byers, and Eduardo Franco as Argyle in STRANGER THINGS. Cr. Courtesy of Netflix © 2022 Netflix has yet to announce an official release date for Stranger Things Season 5, though the streamer has confirmed it will debut sometime in 2025. There's a strong possibility Season 5 will be split into two parts, similar to Season 4. (Volume One was released on May 27, followed by Volume Two five weeks later on July 1.) This is a common release strategy Netflix often uses for its most-popular series, including The Witcher, Bridgerton, and Emily in Paris. More details about the release date could be revealed during Netflix's Tudum event on Saturday, May 31, 2025, at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT. (Don't worry – If you're not watching live, i'll be updating this story with the latest information as it comes in.) STRANGER THINGS. (L to R) Winona Ryder as Joyce Byers and David Harbour as Jim Hopper in STRANGER ... More THINGS. Netflix confirmed via a cast photo that the main cast will return for Stranger Things Season 5, including 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, the Duffer Brothers (Ross and Matt), Finn Wolfhard, and Sadie Sink. New additions to the cast for the final run include Linda Hamilton, Nell Fisher, Jake Connelly and Alex Breaux. Hamilton will be playing a new role in Hawkins, though not much is known about her character yet. STRANGER THINGS. (L to R) David Harbour as Jim Hopper and Millie Bobby Brown as Eleven in STRANGER ... More THINGS. The plot for Stranger Things Season 5 remains tightly under wraps, but the next chapter will pick up after the explosive Season 4, Part 2 finale, where the Hawkins crew tried to take down Vecna for good. Max volunteered to serve as bait to lure Vecna in, while Eleven used a sensory deprivation tank to enter Max's mind and confront Vecna directly. After Vecna killed Max, triggering the opening of the fourth gate, Eleven used her powers to revive her, although Max remained in a coma. In one of the most heartbreaking moments from 'Chapter Nine: The Piggyback,' Eddie Munson sacrificed himself to distract the demobats and protect his friends. Though severely injured, Vecna managed to escape. In the final moments, Hawkins is left in ruins, with the barrier between the real world and the Upside Down rendered nonexistent. Matt and Ross Duffer told Deadline in 2023 that their goal for Season 5 is to 'stick the landing.' 'Characters are already going to be in action, they're already going to have a goal and a drive, and I think that's going to carve out at least a couple hours and make this season feel really different,' Matt explained. 'I'm sure the wrap-up will be a lot longer. It's going to be 'Return of the King'-ish with, like, eight endings. STRANGER THINGS. (L to R) Winona Ryder as Joyce Byers and David Harbour as Jim Hopper in STRANGER ... More THINGS. The first teaser trailer for Stranger Things Season 5 is expected to drop Saturday, May 31, 2025, during Netflix's TUDUM event. Stay tuned to learn more.

I Rewatched Black Widow After Seeing Thunderbolts*, And It Has Me A Lot More Emotional Over Florence Pugh's Yelena Belova
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. It's hard to believe, but Fantastic Four: First Steps is the only title left among upcoming Marvel movies before we get our first Avengers movie since Endgame, Avengers: Doomsday. And while I probably wouldn't have believed you if you told me before seeing it, Thunderbolts* is my favorite MCU movie in years, and I have to say a lot of that is thanks to Florence Pugh's Yelena Belova. Never mind the actress already being some of my favorites in movies like Dune: Part 2 or Midsommar, her character is quickly rising in the ranks in the current superhero lineup. And when I rewatched her first appearance in Black Widow, it only made me appreciate her more. I remember digging Black Widow when it came out, but I'll be honest, I've kind of forgotten about it since I saw it. Of course, there's the fact that it probably came out at the wrong time, given the COVID-19 pandemic was still heavily affecting theaters and Disney was experimenting with its Disney+ service, perhaps to the detriment of the movie's performance. But, I need to talk about how seeing Thunderbolts* reminded me to go back to the 2021 release and deepen my love for Yelena Belova further. SPOILERS are ahead for Thunderbolts* and Black Widow. There's a lot to love about Thunderbolts* in my opinion, but the biggest highlight of the movie for me is the relationship between Yelena and her 'dad,' the Red Guardian. My favorite scene was definitely in the third act of the movie when Yelena gets honest with him about how she's been feeling really alone and having a lot of regrets about her life. In response, Red Guardian tells Yelena that when he looks at her, he 'doesn't see' her mistakes. Instead, he remembers who she was as a kid, and how she wanted to be the goalie on her childhood soccer team in order to be the 'person everyone relies on when they make a mistake.' Without that scene in the movie, I just don't think Thunderbolts* would be as good as it is. It had me thinking back to when Yelena and Red Guardian's relationship was established in Black Widow. I remember the two actors being just as funny and grounded in the 2021 movie, and yet I hadn't placed the movie high in my mind to realize this going into seeing Thunderbolts*. So I made it my mission to revisit Black Widow after seeing the latest Marvel movies. When it comes to Marvel movies in order, I had actually forgotten that the movie takes place in 2016 in the MCU timeline, two years prior to the events in Infinity War and the events of Thunderbolts* takes place a little over a decade after Black Widow (with the five-year gap of the snap in between to think about). And after seeing Black Widow again, I think the movie does a good job of establishing an older Yelena who has dealt with a lot more life and loss, and having the context of her upbringing with the Red Guardian and Melina really helped me understand her better. It was so much fun to see how the character was introduced in the movie, because Pugh very much stays true to who Yelena is between them. Oh, and it slipped my mind how quotable Yelena was in Black Widow to the point of actually stealing the thunder off of Scarlett Johansson's MCU sendoff. But the one thing that really caught me off guard is how much Yelena clearly looks up to Natasha Romanoff throughout the movie, even if she's always taking shots at her Avengers position and "posing". While I read it more as MCU banter the first time I saw it, this time I noticed how much that relationship really gives sister energy, and while Natasha kind of brushes Yelena off (as big sisters often do), Natasha means a lot to her. I realized getting to do a mission with her and reunite with their 'parents' is kind of the best thing for Yelena, because she's spent a lot of time alone. Throughout the movie, you see how, while Natasha has kind of lost her respect for her parental figures, Yelena is still attached to them. As she says in one memorable line: "It was real to me." It made me extra sad about the death of Natasha in Endgame, and how in Thunderbolts*, Yelena feels like she wants to make a difference like her sister did, but she's having problems making the transition (inwardly and outwardly). So, when I finished Black Widow, knowing that her second MCU movie ends with her becoming a new Avenger, I found it especially poignant. She still clearly feels the loss of Natasha, now she's going to get the chance to serve with the Avengers and be the person she has always looked up to: her sister! I'm not crying, you are. Disney+: from $9.99 a month w/ ad-supported planYou can stream Black Widow now as I did with a Disney+ subscription. In fact you can check out every MCU movie on Disney+, starting at $9.99 a month for its new ad-supported plan. Go ad-free and pay $15.99 a month or save 16% and pre-pay $159.99 for a Deal While the Thunderbolts* director has suggested the movie isn't a Black Widow sequel, I would argue the new Marvel film wouldn't have worked for me as well as it did if it weren't for the 2021 movie. If I hadn't seen the scene where Yelena and Red Guardian sing 'American Pie' together, I wouldn't have bought into their continued father-daughter dynamic as much, and there's a kind of twisted found family element in the Kate Shortland film that spiritually carries over into Thunderbolts*, I think. The only thing that really bummed me out after seeing Black Widow is how the movie perfectly served Thunderbolts* the chance to feature Scarlett Johansson one more time through the shame rooms created by Sentry. I think it would have been really beautiful if she had shown up for a moment and allowed Yelena to get some closure or something. But, I also understand that Johansson is hesitant to return to the MCU after her long stint, and I was kind of into the fact that Thunderbolts* wasn't packed full of cameos. Because while Yelena Belova kind of sees herself as not as good as Natasha, the fact is she's being given way more to do in the MCU already than her sister was. Sure, it was different times, but I've always felt so conflicted about how Black Widow was handled as a character. She's very much in the center of things going into Doomsday, and I love that for her, but now I'm never getting out of my mind how the character will be constantly missing her sister as she becomes a hero in her own right.
