August 6, 2024

The Netflix CEO has announced the release year for the final season of Stranger Things. This exciting news is a relief for fans who have been waiting for the premiere of season 5.

Lately, there have been many speculations about the release date of the final season. Now, Netflix boss Ted Sarandos has finally confirmed that season 5 of Stranger Things will arrive in 2025. This official announcement finally ends the rumors and gives fans a timeline for when they can expect the final season.

Ted Sarandos spoke about the upcoming season during the company’s Q2 2024 Earnings Interview. He said,

“Looking forward through 2025, you’ve got new seasons of Wednesday, Stranger Things, and The Night Agent, and we’re in production on One Piece, so there’s a ton of excitement there just in our series.”

However, he did not mention whether the season will be split into two parts like season 4. Recently Netflix has been using a split-season format, so this strategy will likely be applied to the final season of Stranger Things.

Some fans might be disappointed that season 5 will not be released in 2024. Still, this news is positive given the long delays due to the Hollywood strike in 2023 which delayed the production for over 100 days. Despite this setback, the confirmed release in 2025 ensures that fans won’t have to wait indefinitely.

The series creators Matt Duffer and Ross Duffer were seen in one clip discussing the filming, “We’re about halfway through filming now and it’s exciting. There’s so much going on. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Stranger Things season 5.”

The final season will likely be split into two parts. If rumours are to be believed, the first volume will premiere in December 2025, while the last volume will follow in 2026.
