Stranger Things teaser promises explosive finale as fans worry for characters' fate
Netflix just dropped a teaser trailer for season five of Stranger Things, airing almost a decade after the very first episode was released. The almost three-minute-long trailer made fans panic about the fate of a beloved character as they rushed to social media to beg for their safety.
Fans noticed a lot of crying in the trailer, making them question who will be meeting their demise. The trailer starts off with the main characters waiting around in what appears to be a bunker as a voice rings out: "Burn commencing in five... four... three... two... and one," before writing appeared on screen telling fans the show is coming out in November.
One scene shows Lucas Sinclair, played by Caleb McLaughlin, crying as he sat by a hospital bed occupied by a unconscious girl - who fans are convinced is Max Mayfield (played by Sadie Sink).
Later in the trailer, Lucas was seen protecting what could be the same person, now awake and rocking a hospital gown.
In the previous season, Max was left comatose after a harrowing encounter with Vecna (Jamie Campbell Bower), and despite Eleven's (Millie Bobby Brown) efforts, she remained unresponsive in a hospital bed as the season concluded.
Another showcased Dustin Henderson (played by Gaten Matarazzo) kneeling by Edward Munson's (Joseph Quinn) grave, which was vandalised with the words 'Burn in hell.'
"This thing," one voice said. "It ties us together. Forever." Fans were over the moon with the trailer as they rushed to the comment section to share their excitement over the upcoming release.
One user said on Netflix's Instagram post: "Oh my gosh. Goosebumps," while another posted: "Please, leave my favourite character alive. my man Steve Harrington."
Another repeated to themself: "Steve is safe steve is safe steve is safe steve is safe steve is safe," while one worried fan commented: "When Steve is hugging Dustin that looks like something bad just happened."
The much-anticipated final season of Stranger Things is set in the autumn of 1987, and according to the official synopsis: "Hawkins is scarred by the opening of the Rifts, and our heroes are united by a single goal: find and kill Vecna.
"But he has vanished - his whereabouts and plans unknown. Complicating their mission, the government has placed the town under military quarantine and intensified its hunt for Eleven, forcing her back into hiding.
"As the anniversary of Will's disappearance approaches, so does a heavy, familiar dread.
"The final battle is looming - and with it, a darkness more powerful and more deadly than anything they've faced before. To end this nightmare, they'll need everyone - the full party - standing together, one last time."

Tyler to help 'rescue' Enid in Wednesday season 2 as fans predict reunion
Wednesday season two will see Wednesday Addams (Jenna Ortega) face her biggest challenge yet as she tries to prevent her best friend Enid Sinclair's (Emma Myers) death. The much-anticipated second season of Wednesday is on the horizon, and Netflix has just dropped a spine-chilling trailer hinting at Wednesday Addams' (portrayed by Jenna Ortega) next adventure. Haunted by a premonition of her best mate Enid Sinclair's (Emma Myers) demise, Wednesday is determined to thwart this grim future. A poignant fan theory circulating suggests that despite Wednesday's efforts, Enid might still face her end as the season progresses. Yet, there's a glimmer of hope that Wednesday could rescue Enid, with speculation rife that she'll turn to an unexpected source for assistance. In the climactic conclusion of the first series, Tyler (Hunter Doohan) was unmasked as the Hyde monster wreaking havoc at Nevermore Academy, reports the Mirror. Following his exposure, Tyler found himself confined to Willow Hill Psychiatric Hospital, where his mother had been a patient, leaving Wednesday questioning whether he could be trusted. Reddit users have been buzzing with the idea that Wednesday might find herself in a position where she has no choice but to seek Tyler's aid to save Enid. HappyChaosOfTheNorth posited: "I think that against her better judgment and out of desperation, Wednesday is going to reluctantly enlist in Tyler's help in saving Enid." They continued: "Thoughts? I personally can't think of any other reason she would give him the time of day except to maybe try and get clues about her stalker or something." Echoing this sentiment, Kitkatloren2009 concurred: "I mean. It is a classic formula. Not bad, I actually like it. It's logical too. "The protagonist goes to an old enemy to stop another, even bigger enemy or gets help to save someone." Soft_Interaction_437 chimed in: "I agree that it'll be interesting to see how's he's relevant. We've only ever seen clips of him in the asylum, but we know that he gets out because we see the Hyde. Watch Wednesday on Netflix for free with Sky from £15 Sky Get the deal here Product Description "So either they are keeping their cards with him close to the chest, or most his scenes outside the mental hospital are in part two. If your theory is correct then maybe one of the final scenes of part one will be Wednesday breaking him out?". Yet, another enthusiast has a different take on why Wednesday might be monitoring Tyler. Caesar_Seriona speculated: "No. Wednesday is going to make the mistake of assuming Tyler is now hunting Enid since Enid was getting the upper hand in her fight. "Someone pitched the idea that a rogue Hyde can only be tamed by the one who beats it. Well technically Tyler lost to his dad however in the fight itself, it was Enid. "I bet Wednesday is tracking Tyler not only because she is p***** off she got tricked but now the timetable is being accelerated thinking Tyler wants Enid's a**." The question remains whether Tyler will emerge as Enid's protector or become her greatest peril.

Dog the Bounty Hunter's stepson bragged about shooting rifle with son before horror death
Dog the Bounty Hunter's stepson Gregory Zecca and his son Anthony were seen enjoying a shooting range years before the accidental shooting fatality at the weekend The stepson of Dog the Bounty Hunter had bragged about shooting guns with his son years before his tragic accidental death. Gregory Zecca, who is passionate about his love of guns, seemingly passed down his feelings to his son Anthony. Sadly, an accident over the weekend saw Zecca's 13-year-old son shot and killed. The tragedy is said to have occurred in their apartment in Florida on Saturday. Now, their love of guns has been made apparent in a number of past social media post. In 2021, footage showed the 38-year-old bounty hunter showing his child, who was nine at the time, how to use a rifle. The images were taken at Franktown Firearms Shooting Center in Franktown, Colorado. In the Instagram post, which has its comments disabled, Zecca said: "Getting some range time in with our buddies @franktownfirearms." Anthony is seen in the posts smiling as he takes aim at the targets. In another image, Zecca and his son both smile for the camera as they wear their protective ear muff and goggles while holding the firearms. Following the tragic fatality, Dog - whose real name is Duane Chapman - and his partner Francie, released a statement to TMZ through a representative. It read: "We are grieving as a family over this incomprehensible tragic accident and would ask for continued prayers as we grieve the loss of our beloved grandson, Anthony." Gregory, who is Francie's child from a previous marriage, became part of Dog's life when he married Francie in 2021. The couple found solace in each other following the deaths of their respective spouses. Gregory is also part of Dog's bounty hunting crew, working alongside Dog and his daughter, Lyssa. In 2020, Francie told ET of their connection: "We understood the pain that the other one was feeling, and [in] those tough days and moments, we helped each other stand up. "We could cry with each other and talk about what we were feeling. We were able to walk alongside each other through the pain and heartbreak, and it brought us together in this amazing way." In 2023, Dog also told his followers of his secret son. The revelation came on the fourth anniversary of his late wife Beth's passing. At the time, he introduced his adult son to the world through a social media post. The image showed a well-built man dressed in a blue polo shirt and smart jeans, complete with sunglasses reminiscent of those his father famously wears. Dog explained the tale behind his secret son would be revealed in his memoir titled Nine Lives and Counting. The reality TV star is best known for catching criminals in the US, in particular Hawaii.

Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen's wife issues warning to him after near-death experience during Netflix filming
The Changing Rooms star suffered a terrifying experience where he almost drowned while filming Celebrity Bear Hunt. Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen's wife has warned she doesn't want him taking part in any more stunts after his near-fatal experience while filming Netflix series Celebrity Bear Hunt. The Changing Rooms icon, 59, joined the likes of Lottie Moss, Mel B and Boris Becker on Bear Grylls' reality series, which he hosted alongside former This Morning star Holly Willoughby. The celebrities took part in a series of tasks in the Central American jungle, where they were 'prey for one of the world 's most fearsome predators'. But things didn't always go as planned, with Steph McGovern being rushed to medics after nearly breaking her nose and sparking concussion fears after she swung into a cliff, while Laurence almost drowned in the sea, with Bear diving in to save him. Recalling the terrifying moment, the TV star called it a 'close shave' and 'a very frightening experience'. In an interview with Hello! he recalled not being able to breathe and almost passing out, jokingly adding: "In my head I was James Bond, but the sad fact is that I'm actually more like Grandpa Pig." After a tearful phone call with his wife Jackie, she emotionally shared: 'When you go through something like that, it's almost like PTSD, and the thinking back is probably more upsetting than going through it in the first place." "He doesn't like being in the sea; he doesn't like being out of his depth," she added, saying it was 'one of his nine lives'. "I don't want him doing anything like that again. And you know, you really don't need to, because you're Grandpa Pig these days," she said. When the Netflix series aired, Laurence could be seen and heard groaning and struggling in the water during the challenge, as he struggled to unclip supply bags from a raft and became tangled up in equipment. 'I kept throwing myself at the raft, trying to get up. It just wasn't that easy,' he said. 'Suddenly, I am in some high of fight or flight.' Presenter Holly Willoughby looked on from the shore as concern mounted, while Bear threw himself into the water as Laurence could be heard shouting for help and saying: 'I can't breathe.' After a terrifying moment, he was dragged to shore by production crew coming to rescue him. When he was able to gain his breath on the beach, Laurence explained he felt 'really tight across my chest' and couldn't 'get enough oxygen'. He was given an oxygen mask and urged to lie down in the shade by medics. 'I couldn't breathe, it really was frightening,' he later said. 'I really did think I was having a heart attack.' He later echoed to Times Radio: 'It wasn't a pleasant experience at all. I mean, it really, really wasn't. I was blacking out. I thought I was having a heart attack. And having then been pumped full of, I think it's about three canisters of oxygen, which is wonderful stuff by the way…but it was a very solitary thing.' He added: 'I always felt that I was quite physically resilient. I have regular medicals. I'm perceived as being reasonably fit for what I am but it did feel slightly like a moment of failure.'
