Stranger Things star Maya Hawke has raised expectations for the fifth and final season of the series, ensuring that the final episodes will be like watching the movies.
Hawke, played by Robin Buckley, explained why it took so long to wrap up production this season: “Each season takes a long time to write and takes a long time to film. “We’re basically making eight movies,” I’m sure the fans will love it! I’m really excited to see the story of this series and I’m excited to see the eight films that will complete the story.
The last season of the movie
Speaking about the final season, co-creator Ross Duffer previously said that this final chapter of the story will be an emotional arc for Will Byers (Noah Schnapp) and will tie the entire series together. Ross Duffer explained:
“Of course he will take center stage again [la temporada] 5. This emotional arc for him is what we think will hopefully tie the entire series together. Confession is used to being younger, more introverted and protected. So part of the journey is not just his sexuality, but Will being young.
The Stranger Things writing team previously described season five as “Seasons 1 and 4 if they had a baby.” And that baby gets injected with steroids. Although we don’t know much about what the story will entail, we do know that the final episodes will “return to Season 1.” Matt Duffer previously said: “We’re really starting to see his maturity, which is challenging for a lot of reasons; Some are supernatural. But you’re starting to see him come into his own.
Will Byers’ emotional arc
Ross Duffer added, “I think you’ll see that not just with Will, but with two character arcs. But her relationship with Steve and Nancy as well as Jonathan if things don’t quite work out. The characters have taken steps in Will’s case, but that journey is far from over. All of that will play a big role as we try to close out next season.
Noah Schnapp also commented: “All I can tell you is that I’m very, very excited for what’s to come. I think they did a great job with Will’s character this season and communicated everything they needed to beautifully. The way they closed the show is perfect: the story starts with Will and ends with Will.
