Stranger Things season 4 posters unveiled, premiere date announced! Series will end with season 5

UPDATED with a fifth poster that reveals Stranger Things season 4 will be released on Netflix in two volumes! Volume 1 reaches the streaming service on May 27th and Volume 2 will follow on July 1st. Deadline has also announced that a fifth and final season of the show has been ordered, so the end is indeed very close.

However, there will be spin-offs coming beyond the season 5 finale. Series creators The Duffer Brothers said,

There are still many more exciting stories to tell within the world of Stranger Things: new mysteries, new adventures, new unexpected heroes. But first we hope you stay with us as we finish this tale.”

ORIGINAL ARTICLE:

Stranger Things producer Shawn Levy has said that he and the show’s creators The Duffer Brothers “have the end in sight” – and a batch of newly released posters for Stranger Things season 4 set up the fact that we’re nearing the conclusion of this series with the tagline “Every ending has a beginning”. Four posters were released online through the Stranger Things Twitter account this morning, and you can see them at the bottom of this article.

Stranger Things season 4 will find that David Harbour‘s character Hopper is 

imprisoned far from home in the snowy wasteland of Kamchatka, where he will face dangers both human… and other. 

Meanwhile, back in the states, a new horror is beginning to surface, something long buried, something that connects everything. 

Harbour is joined in the cast by returning stars Finn Wolfhard, Millie Bobby Brown, Joe Keery, Gaten Matarazzo, Caleb McLaughlin, Noah Schnapp, Sadie Sink, Maya Hawke, Priah Ferguson, Winona Ryder, Natalia Dyer, Charlie Heaton, Cara Buono, Matthew Modine, and Brett Gelman, as well as new additions Robert Englund, Amybeth McNulty, Myles Truitt, Regina Ting Chen, Grace Van Dien, Jamie Campbell Bower, Eduardo Franco, Joseph Quinn, Tom Wlaschiha, Sherman Augustus, Mason Dye, Nikola Djuricko, and Levon Hawke.

The posters show us different groups of characters in four different locations: Russia, The Lab, The Creel House, and California.

I have been a fan of Stranger Things since it first premiered and have enjoyed all three of the seasons so far, so I’m anxiously looking forward to watching the fourth. Due to the pandemic, it has taken them a really long time to get this one together.
