Everything We Know About ‘Stranger Things' Season 5 So Far
Updated with the latest: Stranger Things Season 5 has its release date — or 3, rather. The final installment of the Netflix tentpole series will arrive in three parts at the end of this year. Season 5 officially wrapped production December 2024 after it had reached the halfway point in July. Production on the final season kicked off in January 2024. More from Deadline Maya Hawke Gives 'Stranger Things' Season 5 Filming Update: 'We're Making, Basically, Eight Movies' 'Stranger Things' Season 5 Episodes Will Be Shorter Than Season Four, Duffer Brothers Say Everything We Know About 'Nobody Wants This' Season 2 So Far The fifth and final season of the show has been in the works ever since Part 2 of Season 4 arrived in July 2022, with the writers room for the next season opening August that year. A pandemic delaying Season 4's arrival and then dual Hollywood strikes pushed Season 5 further than originally planned. Find everything we know about Stranger Things Season 5 below. When will Season 5 come out? Netflix announced at its big TUDUM event May 31 that the first of three parts of the final season will arrive Nov. 26, 2025 on the streamer. Part 2 will come out on Christmas, and the epic conclusion of Part 3 will arrive New Year's Eve. RELATED: Many of the stars like Noah Schnapp, Finn Wolfhard and more have reacted to the momentous occasion on social media, posting thoughtful reflections about the decade spent making this show and more. How many episodes are in Season 5? Season 5 will have eight episodes. Netflix released the episode titles on Nov. 6, 2024, or Stranger Things Day, which is the date of Will Byers' original disappearance that started the whole story in Season 1. From the looks of episode 2's title, someone or something else goes missing this season as well. Episode 1's title had been previously released. RELATED: Season 5 Episode Titles 'The Crawl' 'The Vanishing Of' 'The Turnbow Trap' 'Sorcerer' 'Shock Jock' 'Escape From Camazotz 'The Bridge' 'The Rightside Up' 'In the fall of 1987, one last adventure begins,' a teaser clip revealed with the episode titles in order. This confirms a time jump in Season 5 which will pick up more than a year after the events of season 4, which began in March 1986. The Season 4 finale ended with Vecna opening a massive gate to the Upside Down, leading to terrible destruction in Hawkins as the three groups of the original cast members reunited there. RELATED: A few other insights into the newly released episode titles, paired with some photos posted on the Stranger Things Instagram accounts as well as that of Ross Duffer, suggest more Dungeons and Dragons lore with the 'Sorcerer' title of Episode 4, a radio station hangout — 50,000 WSQK Watts — that potentially ties into 'Shock Jock' Episode 5 (which rhymes with The Squawk pictured on a van for the outlet) and the mysterious yet oddly specific term Camazotz, which could either represent the planet from Madeleine L'Engle's A Wrinkle in Time, a Mayan bat god from the Underworld or something else entirely. Season 4 introduced some terrifying demi-bat creatures that caused both Steve Harrington (Joe Keery) and Eddie Munson (Joseph Quinn) damage. Episode 3 likely refers to the Turnbow Land Development & Realty company portrayed in an Instagram post from Ross Duffer. Will there be new characters in Season 5? Season 5 will see new cast members Nell Fisher, Jake Connelly, and Alex Breaux joining the cast of Stranger Things. Fisher will play a more grown-up Holly Wheeler. Linda Hamilton also announced at 2023's Tudum: A Global Fan Event that she would be joining the final season as well, but details of her role are being kept under wraps. They join core cast members Millie Bobby Brown, Finn Wolfhard, Noah Schnapp, Gaten Matarazo, Caleb McLaughlin, David Harbour, Winona Ryder, Natalia Dyer, Joe Keery and Charlie Heaton. RELATED: Later additions Sadie Sink, Brett Gelman, Maya Hawke, Jamie Campbell Bower and Amybeth McNulty as well as several others will close out the final installment as well, with Bower embodying the big bad Vecna, who was introduced in Season 4. 'If season 4 was big, season 5 definitely feels bigger,' Bower said in a behind-the-scenes video released at the halfway point of production of Season 5. Did Sadie Sink's Character Max die in Season 4 of ? Max Mayfield's fate is uncertain, but Sink has revealed that she will be running in some way in Season 5 as of a recent Variety cover story. Sink spoke with Deadline about her character's heartwrenching finale ending in Season 4. RELATED: Did Joseph Quinn's character Eddie Munson die? Eddie Munson, a breakout star character of Season 4, is more certainly dead, though Quinn did give pause in a red carpet interview for A Quiet Place: Day One when the reporter suggested he might still be back in Season 5 somehow. Who else is behind Season 5? The Shawshank Redemption (1994) director and Walking Dead creator Frank Darabont came out of retirement to direct on the installment. Of course, the Duffer brothers helm the series, and Shawn Levy produces and directs on the show. RELATED: Will there be more Seasons of ? No, Season 5 is the last one, but the universe will live on through the stage play Stranger Things: The First Shadow, which delves deeper into the lives of teenage Joyce, Hopper, Karen Wheeler and Lonnie Byers when Henry Creel (aka Vecna) first came to town. Deadline exclusively reported that this first play will be one of three. RELATED: 'Stranger Things: The First Shadow' Coming To Broadway In March; See Trailer Released Today There will also be an animated spinoff series, which remains untitled for now.

Noah Schnapp gets trolled over ‘Stranger Things' season 5 performance ahead of series finale
As Netflix prepares for the highly anticipated final season of Stranger Things, actor Noah Schnapp has become the centre of a social media storm. The 20-year-old, known for his portrayal of Will Byers since the show's debut in 2016, is being compared to Gal Gadot for what critics call 'flat' and 'emotionless' delivery in recently released performances. The criticism exploded following teaser clips from Stranger Things season 5, igniting memes and online debates. One viral post referenced a cultural trope of former teen stars facing career struggles. Another widely shared tweet paired a political jab with a humourous caption. Amid the backlash, some fans stood their ground, dismissing the criticism with lines like 'propaganda I'm not falling for: Noah can't act.' Meanwhile, harsher posts continued the comparison trend, labelling him 'the male version of Gal Gadot when it comes to acting. noah schnapp about to join the tom felton asylum once stranger things ends im cryinggg — ً (@rafesboy) June 1, 2025 Noah Schnapp when you tell him you don't think Zionism is sexy — Mighty Zap (@ZapIsMighty) June 1, 2025 The male version of Gal Gadot when it comes to acting — kira 👾 (@kirawontmiss) June 1, 2025 propaganda im not falling for: noah cant act — ⸉⸆ɯǝƃ (@byersahoy) June 1, 2025 Gal Gadot really can't act, but saying Noah Schnapp can't act just because you don't like him, is a straight up lie. — the blue (@thebluestshade) June 1, 2025 As Stranger Things prepares to conclude with its fifth season, expectations are sky-high for every returning cast member.
