The Duffer Brothers made an appearance at the premiere of Stranger Things: The First Shadow yesterday. During interviews with the media at the event, they shed light on the long-awaited final season of Stranger Things. According to them, the filming process is expected to span approximately a year.
“I mean, it’s gonna hit at some point, but right now we’re stressed mostly. Because we have about a year of shooting to do, and I was looking at the schedule last week and going, oh boy. I mean, listen, I mean, yeah, we’re very focused on the work, trying not to think about it ending, because that’s gonna be hard. It’s gonna be super bittersweet. And I think that’s how the entire cast feels.”
In addition, the Duffer Brothers disclosed that they have already conducted the table read for the initial six episodes of the final season. However, they mentioned that they would read the scripts for the last two episodes later due to the anticipated emotional intensity of those particular scenes.
“We read six of the eight scripts last week, but we purposely did not read the last two. Because we’ll do that later, because that’s gonna be very emotional.”
Furthermore, the Duffer Brothers have officially confirmed that the ultimate season will consist of 8 episodes. Filming is set to kick off in January 2024, with the production anticipated to conclude by the end of the year.
