  • The feature‑length capstone debuts Dec. 31 as a simultaneous cinema‑plus‑streaming presentation confirmed by the creators.
  • The Duffer Brothers used a Tonight Show appearance to tease the end with symbolic Funko Pop placements that fans read as hints about character fates.
  • An unreleased clip shown on the program features the core group strategizing a counterattack at WSQK, previewing the next chapter without revealing plot turns.
