Since Finn was born in December 2002, that means he's currently 20 years old and he won't be 21 until the end of 2024. This also means that Stranger Things 5 may potentially be released at the end of 2025, according to Finn's statement. In a February 2023 interview with GQ, Finn Wolfhard hinted that the fifth and final season of the beloved sci-fi series likely won't hit Netflix until 2025. "I can't believe it's already season 5, I will be 22 by the time it comes out, I think, and I started working on the show at 12. That is insane," the actor said. "I’ll be able to drink with Gaten [Matarazzo], Caleb [McLaughlin] and Noah [Schnapp] and the whole cast at the premiere of Stranger Things 5. [You] couldn’t have said the same thing at the season 1 premiere, which blows my mind." So, if Robin survives the imminent battle with the Upside Down in Hawkins, Maya is open to other paths for her character. When the Rolling Stone interviewer expressed dreams of a spin-off of Robin and Steve living their best lives someplace in the ’90s, Maya concurred. “Normally I wouldn’t really be a proponent of a spinoff, but if I got to do it with Joe Keery, I would do anything. He’s so funny and wonderful and smart, and he’s got great boundaries. He’s an excellent coworker, and I would do anything with him,” she said.

In an August 2022 interview, the Duffer Brothers said they were trying not to add a lot of new faces to the series. "We're doing our best to resist [adding new characters] for Season 5," Matt Duffer told IndieWire. "We’re trying not to do that so we can focus on the OG characters, I guess."Sadie Sink received her flowers for her emotional performance as Max in Stranger Things 4, and she opened up about leaving the beloved series and starting a new chapter. On January 4, 2023, the actress appeared on The Today Showto promote her movie The Whale but revealed that she doesn't know much about the fifth and final season of her hit Netflix show. "We know that it's happening and that it's the last season, so it's going to be emotional I'm sure," Sadie said. "Spoiler-free, just with the way my character ended in season 4, I have no idea what is going to happen. But I'll be there." In a fan edit posted on TikTok, Sadie is seen with her new short hair while playing the guitar. The post's caption reads, "the hair 🤤💯 ST5 spoiler??" Others took to the comments section, writing, "Have you seen that Sadie Sink has a new hairstyle?? If she cut off her hair, does that mean she won’t be in season 5? after all, they can’t change their hairstyle. Max won’t be alive?" I will say the thing about these Duffer Brothers is that even though the show has gotten so famous and the characters have gotten so iconic and there’s so much about the ’80s and the supernatural and the genre, it’s about these people, it’s about these characters,” Levy added. “Season five is already so clearly taking care of these stories of the characters because that’s always been the lifeblood of Stranger Things.”

The actress reiterated that she knows nothing about season 5 plot details for her character. But when asked if she thinks she and Lucas will end up together, she said, “Yeah, I think so. I mean, they’re really cute, aren’t they? And the little like note exchange, that was really sweet. I think we gotta see something. There’s definitely room to grow there.” Who will return to Stranger Things 5? I feel like that's both a great thing, and I also love characters where their love life is not the center of their existence," she continued. "And that friendship with Steve is so special, and friendships have been carrying me through my life. I think they're really important and they deserve their airtime." I literally don’t know,” he told E! News. “ The Stranger Things writers’ room tweeted out, ‘Hey, everybody, send us your thoughts for next season. What would you like to see?’ And I wrote in, ‘Can Dr. Owens live? Would that be possible?’” In a July 2022 interview with the Happy Sad Confused podcast, the Duffers also revealed that episodes in the final season will be shorter than the movie-length ones in Stranger Things 4 — with the exception of the big finale, of course. “The only reason we don’t expect to be as long is because, typically — or this season, if you look at it, it’s almost a two-hour ramp up before our kids really get drawn into a supernatural mystery,” Matt explained. “You get to know them, you get to see them in their lives, they’re struggling with adapting to high school and so forth. Steve’s trying to find a date, all of that. None of that is obviously going to be occurring in the first two episodes.” It's unclear whether Sadie's short hair plays into the plot of the upcoming season, but there's a chance it could tie in with the time jump to make her character, Max, appear older.For those worrying that the series might move to a weekly release on Netflix, fear not. On June 7, 2022, Peter Friedlander, Netflix’s head of scripted series for the U.S. and Canada, confirmed to Varietythat the final season will follow suit with previous iterations, and will be released all at once.
