Stranger Things 4 May Begin Filming This Fall

Eager to return to Hawkins, Indiana (or beyond) for another season of Stranger Things? We are too (read our review), which is why the recent report that Netflix may begin filming the next season this October is an exciting one. This news comes via Production Weekly, a reliable industry source that you may recall originally revealed Sigourney Weaver’s involvement in Jason Reitman’s upcoming Ghostbusters sequel.

Although we had a fairly long wait between Seasons 2 and 3 of the series, it would make sense that the next moves into production a bit more quickly than last time, as the main stars are all growing up fast and the streaming platform could certainly use a boost after recently falling short of global subscriber goals. The hit show returning for more episodes without too long of a wait just might be what Netflix needs.

A fall filming schedule could set Stranger Things 4 up for a late 2020 or early 2021 release and may even wrap up the series, although earlier reports indicated that it could potentially see five seasons in total (or more if it makes sense to continue). For now, however, the most pressing questions involve an American imprisoned in Russia, the presence of another Demogorgon, and how fate might bring our group of friends back together once more.

Stranger Things is now streaming its third season, titled Stranger Things 3, on Netflix. As always, be sure to stay tuned for all of the latest updates on the show right here on Dead Entertainment.
