LAHORE (Daily Point) — Exciting news awaits avid followers of Netflix’s beloved sci-fi horror series, “Stranger Things,” as the eagerly anticipated fifth and final season gears up for production.

According to exclusive reports from international entertainment sources, the iconic ‘Stranger Things’ crew is set to return to Hawkins after encountering several delays attributed to Hollywood strikes.

The upcoming season, which had its filming initially scheduled for the past summer, faced setbacks due to dual strikes impacting major Hollywood studios, including the Writers Guild and SAG AFTRA. However, it has been revealed that the main cast members have now arrived in Atlanta for pre-production work, signaling a imminent commencement of filming.

If rumors hold true, the cameras are poised to start rolling in the first week of 2024, with potential filming dates set for either January 5 or 8. The delay in the production timeline has pushed back the expected premiere of ‘Stranger Things’ Season 5 to early 2025.

The news comes after a teasing revelation in November, when the writers unveiled the very first scene of the upcoming season on the annual celebration day of Netflix’s hit series. The script hinted at an intriguing opening: “Darkness. The sound of COLD WIND. ROANING TREES. And… A CHILD’S VOICE. Singing a familiar song,” as revealed in the caption, “Season 5. Chapter 1. Scene 1m.” While not divulging too much, this glimpse has undoubtedly fueled excitement among ‘Stranger Things’ enthusiasts eagerly awaiting the final installment of this beloved series.
