Netflix began the countdown to Stranger Things Day by releasing new character posters from Matt and Ross Duffer's Stranger Things 5. As the final season approaches later this month, the upcoming celebration holds significant weight.
While fans prepare for a thrilling conclusion, Netflix kicked off the excitement with detailed character profile posters showcasing key players of the show.
"We spent a full year filming this season," Ross Duffer shared during Netflix's event unveiling the 2025 lineup. "By the end, we had captured over 650 hours of footage. So, needless to say, this is our biggest and most ambitious season yet. It's like eight blockbuster movies. It's pretty, pretty insane."
Matt Duffer added, "At the same [time], we think it's — or hope it's — our most personal story. It was super intense and emotional to film — for us and for our actors we've been with for so long. And we've been making it together for almost 10 years now. The show means so much to all of us, and everyone put their hearts and souls into it."
