Stranger Things S4
Sept 1979 – Hawkins National Laboratories

If you made it through the first 8 minutes of the season four opener, you’ll be surprised to see a ‘young’ Eleven… movie magic.

The buzz today seems to be related to the longer season and the way they split it up but nothing compares to having all episodes ready on May 27th on Netflix to stream at least the first part and then the final part of the season will be in July.

From the Netflix Tudum site: Volume 1, which comes out May 27, will feature the first seven episodes of the season. And the remaining episodes will come with Volume 2, which arrives July 1, for a total of nine — NINE — supersized episodes of Stranger Things headed your way in a matter of days. Those nine episodes total roughly 13 hours of Upside Down goodness. Better yet? The final two episodes of Volume 2 clock in at nearly four hours long. (For the real geeks out there, Episode 407 is 1 hour, 38 minutes; Episode 408 is around 1 hour, 25 minutes; and 409 is almost two and a half hours.)

We are also excited to see Christian Ganiere, who is Ten in season 4 of Stranger Things. Christian is also in the powerful feature film No More Goodbyes about Foster Care, PTSD, Autism, Neurodivergent, Diversity, Redemption, and Family and is now making its way in film festivals. Ganiere has been in Grey’s Anatomy, Days of Our Lives, Rekindling Christmas, Wish Man, and Driven, among others.

Recap from S3: The last time we saw our favorite Hawkins residents, they’d gone their separate ways following the Battle of Starcourt. When we pick up six months later, our heroes Mike (Finn Wolfhard), Will (Noah Schnapp), Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown), Dustin (Gaten Matarazzo) and Lucas (Caleb McLaughlin) must figure out how to put an end to the Upside Down while also navigating the ups and downs of high school. But the action isn’t confined to Hawkins, with drama unfolding in Russia, California and elsewhere. Hey, no one said it was easy being a demon slayer.
