Overview
- Netflix previewed the opening five minutes and set a three‑part rollout for season 5 on November 26, December 25 and December 31, with the finale arriving on both streaming and in theaters.
- At a Los Angeles FYC conversation, Millie Bobby Brown said she “channeled [her] inner Tom Cruise” and emphasized training that makes Eleven more physically driven, adding that Volume 1 only hints at what’s coming.
- Creators Matt and Ross Duffer said they have long known the show’s final scene and described it as a guiding “North Star,” while noting they are still locking the last portion of the season.
- New additions include Linda Hamilton in a physically imposing role and young actor Nell Fisher, choices the creators say help recapture some of season one’s energy.
- Brown’s red‑carpet turn in a sheer, plunging mesh gown drew wide coverage, and separate tabloid reporting cited a complaint she allegedly filed about co‑star David Harbour, which has not been publicly resolved.
