When to Watch Stranger Things 5 Netflix
After more than three years away, Stranger Things has returned for its fifth and final season, closing out a story that began with a missing kid, a sinister lab, and a girl who could move the world with her mind. The new chapter picks up in the fall of 1987, as familiar shadows spread across town and Hawkins braces for the fight ahead.
Some cast members have hinted at what’s ahead. At the season 5 premiere in Los Angeles, Millie Bobby Brown told Netflix’s Tudum that she has “never seen Eleven so locked in,” adding, “She has a goal and a mission in mind, and I’m excited for the audiences to root for her like they’ve been doing for the last 10 years. But, this time, for one last adventure.”
She later described the finale season as a return to the show’s origins, saying, “I think you get to see elements of season 1 [coming] back into season 5.”
Finn Wolfhard, who has played Mike Wheeler since childhood, described the final season as a major emotional milestone. As he told Variety earlier this year, “Everyone had a long journey and shared it together. My whole childhood was there. It was sort of the Toy Story 3 moment of leaving your toys behind. It was really special.”
Season 5, volume 1 officially began on November 26, but there are two more volumes on the way. Here’s everything to know about the series’ final installment and its release schedule.
