A recent rumor has ignited much excitement among Stranger Things fans, suggesting that season 5 will primarily focus on three characters: Eleven, Mike Wheeler, and Will Byers.

The information was shared by entertainment insider Daniel Richtman on his Patreon account. Richtman also teased that Stranger Things will have the biggest budget in series history, with each episode being produced on a cinematic scale. Though this is not surprising, given that it is the series grand finale.

Richtman also confirmed that season 5 will be split into two volumes, releasing in October and November. This aligns with the previous leaks, which have disclosed at 10th October and 27th November as the potential release dates.

Daniel Richtman is a popular insider who has a solid track record for revealing accurate spoilers. He previously leaked significant plot details about Spider-Man: No Way Home, including the return of Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield, months before official confirmations were made. Given his history, his claims about Stranger Things 5 hold significant value.

Season 5 Will Focus on Mike, Will and Eleven

The latest leaks have sparked speculation among Stranger Things fans. Many users believe that the final season will address the love triangle between Mike, Will and Eleven. While season 4 confirmed that Will Byers is gay, he is yet to confess his true feelings to Mike Wheeler. Since Mike is already in love with Eleven, it creates a complicated dynamic that will need to be resolved in the final season. This could also put an end to the long-debated Mileven vs. Byler rivalry

There is also the mystery surrounding Will Byers’ connection to Vecna and the Upside Down, which remains unresolved. Will could play a pivotal role in either defeating Vecna or falling under his control. After Stranger Things 4, the Duffer Brothers revealed that Will would take center stage in season 5. While talking to Variety, Ross Duffer said,

“Will really takes center stage again in 5. This emotional arc for him is what we feel is going to hopefully tie the whole series together. Will is used to being the young one, the introverted one, the one that’s being protected. So part of his journey, it’s not just sexuality — it’s Will coming into his own as a young man.”

While Eleven has always been the main protagonist of Stranger Things, she will continue to play a central role in the final season. Mike Wheeler was somewhat sidelined in the previous seasons, but that will change as he is expected to be the heart of the group in Stranger Things 5. With Eleven, Mike, and Will taking center stage, the final season promises to explore their relationships in more depth.
