The ‘Stranger Things’ stars are demanding many more deaths in the final season
The final season of ‘Stranger Things’ is coming soon, almost a decade from its debut, but its young stars think they’re being too safe with the story.
The final season of ‘Stranger Things’ is fast approaching, one of the most important television series of the last decade, which premiered for the first time on Netflix in a distant 2016. Little by little we are preparing for the arrival of this fifth and final season, which will close the story of what started in Hawkins.
During the MegaCon event held in Orlando (via CBR), actor Gaten Matarazzo, who plays Dustin Henderson in ‘Stranger Things’, confessed that “it might sound messed up, but we should kill more people. This show would be so much better if the stakes were much higher, like at any moment any of these kids can kick it. I feel like we’re all too safe.”
The end of ‘Stranger Things’ is approaching
The director of the series, Matt Duffer, said during an interview with The Guardian that this last season “It’s the biggest it’s ever been in terms of scale, but it has been really fun, because everyone’s back together in Hawkins: the boys and Eleven interacting more in line with how it was in season one. And, yes, there may be spin-offs, but the story of Eleven and Dustin and Lucas and Hopper, their stories are done here. That’s it…”
There are many series that, after enormous success throughout their entire career, fail to live up to expectations in their final season. It is not easy to close a great story, and we will have to see how ‘Stranger Things’ does it, but Matt Duffer is clear that “one very particular way to fail is to attempt to appease everybody. We have a huge variety of fans that span a huge age range and I’m sure they have all their own ideas of how they want the show to end. But we’re not consulting social media on this.”
