'Stranger Things' News: Season Shoots’ Halt to End With a Very Special Schedule Involving Biggies
Ever since its premiere, certain elements have remained consistent with Stranger Things. From its thrilling nature, 90s references, brilliant science fiction quip-ins, and the phenomenal acting that has served as its bread and butter. As the series headed towards its final season, fans expected these elements to be in full effect, but contrary to popular belief, the only evident factor that has remained consistent so far with season 5 is the constant delays.
What started off with the SAG AFTRA strikes has taken various forms to further slow down the production of the final season at various stages. However, things finally seem to be looking up and not upside down.

Stranger Things Season 5 has an immaculate build-up with Max in the hospital, Jim Hopper back in Hawkins, and Henry Creel's story now out in the open. To tie all of these factors, including some forgotten chapters, the series needed all its creators on board. With Shawn Levy being busy with Deadpool & Wolverine earlier, and the main cast being on a break, this was not possible. However, all these delays will finally take a backseat as the cast and crew will be back in full swing in August.
The cast and crew are said to film a major scene that will go down in Episode 6, as per the X account Stranger Things Updates. Moreover, this will also mark the final stretch of filming for the ultimate rollout of the thriller science fiction show that has become Netflix's biggest win. This is the first news of the show being on track for a long time, previously it was only a series of halts.
While the wait might be longer than expected, the cast has provided ample proof that it is going to be worth the wait.

The biggest giveaway that has managed to escape from the Duffer Brothers' grasp is that Will Byers will be the epicenter of it all. This seemed a bit dicey as the actor behind the face, Noah Schnapp, recently was at the receiving end of criticism owing to his political statements. However, given the apology that he has posted on his social media accounts, it seems the makers will still go ahead with him as the main character.
Another recurring statement that the cast and crew have been found making is that many loose knots will be tied and that the show is planning to come back full circle. This, along with the fact that the Netflix hit also has a stage play focusing on the lives of the parents of the main characters, gives the excited fanbase a fair idea as to what might unfold.
