Stranger Things Final Season: Tearful Goodbye Ahead

Noah Schnapp, who plays Will Byers in Stranger Things, has hinted at a tearful goodbye in the show's final season, warning fans to "prepare for tears" as it reaches its emotional peak, with the entire cast left in tears on the final day of filming.

The final season of Stranger Things, set to conclude with its fifth season on November 26, 2025, has been described by Schnapp as "beyond anything we've done yet". Fellow cast member Caleb McLaughlin echoed the emotional tone, saying the show represents a huge part of their lives and that they've grown up on it. The Duffer Brothers, the show's creators, have mostly planned out season five, but filming is expected to take a significant amount of time, possibly two years.

The Duffer Brothers have promised that the upcoming episodes will be slightly shorter, with the finale being a feature-length episode. The change in episode length is due to the reduced character development time in the final season. Noah Schnapp said the final season of Stranger Things is the most emotional work the cast has done, and that fans will be crying. He also quipped that he was the one who cried the most on the last day of filming.

Caleb McLaughlin echoed Schnapp's sentiments, saying the experience has been life-changing and that he's grateful for the opportunity to work with the Duffer brothers. The cast has been tight-lipped about the final season's plot, but Schnapp hinted that Will and Vecna's storyline will continue, and that the season will be "really satisfying" for viewers.

As production on the final season is underway, the cast and crew are promising a satisfying conclusion to the series. With the show set to conclude after nearly a decade-long run, fans are eagerly awaiting the final season, and the emotional goodbye that comes with it.
