In a statement shared to social media, the hit Netflix sci-fi series revealed it would be returning to screens in three months’ time, splitting its season over two “volumes”. “With nine scripts, over 800 pages, almost two years of filming, thousands of visual effects shots, and a runtime nearly twice the length of any previous season, Stranger Things 4 was the most challenging season yet, but also the most rewarding one,” wrote creators Matt and Ross Duffer. “There are still many more exciting stories to tell within the world of Stranger Things: new mysteries, new adventures, new unexpected heroes.” Netflix has also released the first posters for Stranger Things 4. The first of four new posters appears to show a very much alive Hopper breaking out of a snow-covered Russian jail, beneath the tagline: “Every ending has a beginning.” Netflix had previously confirmed that the popular character would be returning for the new series, with Harbour featuring in a teaser for the new season released last year.
