Stranger Things star Joseph Quinn shares a manner in which his character of Eddie Munson can be part of Stranger Things Season 5.

“A Bit Supernatural” – Joseph Quinn Opens Up on How Eddie Munson Could Return in Stranger Things Season 5

Stranger Things Season 4 Volume 2 graced Netflix on Friday. Over the weekend,
many fans will have tuned into the show and had their hearts broken over the
fate of two beloved characters. Vecna’s actions saw Max Mayfield’s limbs snap,
her eyes bleed, and her heart stop for over a minute. While Eleven piggybacked
and saved her, she wasn’t able to save Eddie Munson.

leader and an astoundingly good guitar player met his demise after “he didn’t
run.” Munson faced the Demobats head-on with a spear and shield and held his own
before getting overwhelmed. That means his character is done and dusted, but
there are still ways for him to be part of Stranger Things Season 5.

In an exclusive chat with RadioTimes.com
[https://www.radiotimes.com/tv/sci-fi/stranger-things-season-5-eddie-exclusive-newsupdate/],
Joseph Quinn provided his take on a potential return. He said, “Me and Joe Keery
(Steve Harrington) were discussing ways in which I could kind of…maybe I’d be
like a figment of Gaten’s imagination or something. Like if there could be some
kind of room for something like that, something a bit supernatural”

This could be an ideal scenario, as Dustin saw his friend Eddie Munson’s brave
sacrifice from up close and would have been the worst affected of the lot. While
Quinn is keen to return, he also seems to have made peace with the fact that he
went out on a high after his Upside Down concert. 


JOSEPH QUINN PRAISED EDDIE MUNSON’S CHARACTER ARC IN STRANGER THINGS SEASON 4 

Eddie Munson came in, delighted the audiences, departed, and made a tremendous
impact in his short time on Stranger Things
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/stranger-things/]. He had a great beginning,
middle, and end. 

Quinn said, “As an actor you want characters with those kinds of arcs. So whilst
it would have been great to come back for another season and get together with
all those lovely people again, I think it was a brilliantly realised ending for
a brilliantly written character.” 

Any potential return could be in the form of a special appearance. This has been
the norm for characters from the past, such as Billy Hargrove. Well, Dr. Brenner
returned after supposedly meeting his end at the hands of a Demodog; but
audiences didn’t see his corpse in Season 1. Munson did die and audiences saw
his body, but it remained within the Upside Down at Vecna’s mercy.

001’s body burned, and he fell from the attic of the Upside Down Creel House.
However, as his corpse wasn’t visible to Steve/Nancy/Robin, there are two
possibilities
[https://netflixjunkie.com/netflix-originals-5-stranger-things-season-5-theories-that-will-flip-your-mind-upside-down/].
A. He just retreated. B. He lost his body and had to latch onto another vessel. 

If we are looking at B, Eddie Munson’s body was an option as it remained within
the Upside Down itself. As Mr. Munson didn’t receive it in the epilogue of ‘The
Piggyback’, Dustin certainly didn’t bring it back. This leaves the door open to
the possibility of Vecna using Munson’s corpse as a vessel.

Should this happen, it will have ‘Eddie Munson’ in the final season. However,
the “brilliantly realised ending” for a brilliantly written character
[https://netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-satanic-panic-metalhead-nerd-at-heart-duffer-brothers-recall-bringing-eddie-munson-to-life-with-joseph-quinn/]
will go down the drain. 

Most fans may not want to see this and would remain content with his
supernatural form being a figment of Dustin’s imagination. They may not even
want to see him return for the sake of it. What do you make of Joseph Quinn’s
take on a potential return and his character arc in Stranger Things? Let us
know.
