I’d like to see Frank Darabont return for one other venture, however I’ll be glad to take a pair of episodes of Stranger Things. The ultimate season of the acclaimed Netflix collection is very anticipated, with followers anxious to see how the saga wraps up. The whole lot has been stored below wraps, but when Gaten Matarazzo (Dustin) had his method, the present would kill off extra characters. “It might sound messed up but we should kill more people,” Matarazzo stated. “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.” Who will survive the ultimate season? We’ll have to attend and see.

Though this new season would be the finish of Stranger Things, the Duffer brothers do have plans for a derivative collection which might be “very, very different” from the primary present.
