Stranger Things season 5 filming begins in January 2024 with release date still uncertain
"Stranger Things" is set to conclude with its fifth season, which will begin filming in January 2024. This follows delays caused by recent strikes in the entertainment industry. The release date for the final season remains uncertain, despite earlier expectations for a 2025 premiere. The Duffer Brothers, creators of the series, have indicated that the final season will focus on wrapping up existing storylines. They aim to deliver a fast-paced narrative without the usual build-up, starting immediately from the events of season four. While the season will primarily feature returning characters, some new additions have been confirmed. However, one cast member, Eduardo Franco, will not return for the final season. The premiere episode is titled "Chapter One: The Crawl."
