Expect at least four (or five) seasons of ‘Stranger Things’

Netflix

With the recent cancellations of Marvel-Netflix shows, one can’t help but think what else is next. For now, we’re getting assurance from those behind Stranger Things that we’re getting at least one or two more seasons. The latest one to confirm this news is actor Gaten Matarazzo, who plays Dustin on the show. He gave an interview to De Telegraaf at the Heroes Dutch Comic Con in the Netherlands and talks about how he’s heard that the “magic number is either four or five.” He goes on to add, “We just finished up three—three is not the last one planned.” Matarazzo talks about how he knows the creators Matt and Ross Duffer don’t want to milk the show for as many seasons as it can. What he says lines up with what the Duffers has said before about the show going on for another season or two. What they’ve been grappling with is whether they’re going with four or five, with the former feeling to short and the latter seemingly longer than they wanted.

Matarazzo describes the upcoming one as “scarier, it’s darker, it’s funnier” with familiar evil from the Upside Down coming back. He adds, “But there’s also a completely new form of antagonization towards our heroes.” What that is we’ll have to wait to find out when the show lands this coming summer.
