Fans of Stranger Things got their first glimpse into the final season of the popular Netflix series, as production has now reached its midway point.

The returning cast includes Winona Ryder, Millie Bobby Brown, Finn Wolfhard, Noah Schnapp, Caleb McLaughlin, Gaten Matarazzo, Sadie Sink, Joe Keery, and Maya Hawke.
Behind the Scenes of Stranger Things Final Season
The show made its debut in 2016, and many of the cast members were young children when the series first aired on Netflix. “So I started when I was 10. I am now turning 20 years old. It feels very weird,” star Millie says as she arrives on set. “This is home,” star Gaten says. “You just remember why you’re doing it and how much fun you have.”

So much going on.” Joe and Maya are seen on day one of season five filming, with Maya holding a clapboard as Joe says, “This is day one!” “On Stranger Things five!” Maya chimes in.
