The Duffer brothers and their writing team are still hard at work, writing the final scripts for ‘Stranger Things’. The Netflix series will say goodbye forever with its fifth season, which aims to close all the Hawkins mysteries still open. And while they’ve always claimed to have the plan completely clear since the beginning of the series, nothing is set in stone..
The success of the fourth season of the series, which we had to wait longer than usual due to COVID, was one of those reasons to sit back and recalibrate what was in mind for the last few episodes, as Matt Duffer explained to the WGFestival : “We re-read the document. ‘Okay, okay. It could be so much better. It could be so much better.’ The ending is also a bit different. Many of the great ideas are the same, but the things that happen between them are different”. From Netflix they explain that the Duffers had presented to them the plan for the last two seasons before shooting the fourth, since they had had time to develop both during the pandemic. However, they took note of what they liked and what they didn’t like in the last few chapters that we could see and presented the new plan to the platform.
Ideas inherited from the second season
It’s not the first time the success of the series has forced them to make changes, but Ross Duffer believes it was good for them to wrap up the series: “The success of season 1 scared us because we knew we had to make this world bigger, that it was going to keep happening. We’ve had too many ideas, five times more than we need, or even ten times more. For Season 5, we’ll be taking a lot of those great ideas from Season 2.. A lot of the stuff in our grand finale came from stuff that we thought was going to show up in season two.”.
The fifth season of ‘Stranger Things’ It does not yet have a release date set by Netflixbut since filming hasn’t even started, we will most likely have to wait until 2024 to see how the story of Eleven and her fight against the Upside Down ends.
