Afterthe sci-fi series premiered on the streaming service in July 2016, it wasn’t long before it became a huge hit.

Season 3’s summer 2018 release echoed the fun tone of the episodes, many of which took place at the Starcourt Mall. Then, season 4 came out in May and July 2022 andended with Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) getting ready to beat Vecna (Jamie Campbell Bower).
Now,fans anticipate a three-part release schedule, andpart one will be here on November 26th, 2025, followed by part two on December 25th and the series finale on December 31st.

Since Max Mayfield’s (Sadie Sink) emotional and heavy season 4 scenes are often accompanied by the Kate Bush song “Running Up That Hill,” it would be funif the fifth and final season used another great and unforgettable song.
Along with the returning main cast members, there are a couple of new characters:Dr. Kay (Linda Hamilton), Lt. Akers (Alex Breaux), and Derek Turnbow (Jake Connelly). Mike Wheeler’s sister has also been recast. While Tinsley and Anniston Price played Holly in previous seasons, Nell Fisher has taken on the role.
