Stranger Things’ Duffer Brothers React to Show Return Amid Conformity Gate Rumors
The Party’s Dungeons & Dragons books are staying on the shelf for now.
Amid theories that Stranger Thingsseason five did not actually come to anend with episode eight, the show’s creators Ross Duffer and Matt Duffer shared their honest answer to whether the Netflix series could possibly make a return.
“I feel like this season really, truly does close the door on this story,” Ross told Entertainment Tonight in an interview published Jan. 2, “on the story of Hawkins, and the story of the Upside Down and the story of these characters.”
However, that doesn’t mean revisiting the original characters—including Mike (played by Finn Wolfhard), Will (Noah Schnapp), Max (Sadie Sink), Lucas (Caleb McLaughlin) and Dustin (Gaten Matarazzo)—is totally out of the question in the future.
As Ross quipped, “I guess never say never.”
“[Maybe] in 20 years, if we’re all broke and need some money [and] we’ve all talked about it,” the director added, noting that the idea is his and Matt’s “safety net.”
