When Does Stranger Things Season 5 Start?
Our adventures in Hawkins are nearing an end, but not just yet. Stranger Things has been renewed for season 5, giving fans more time before saying goodbye to the beloved series.
Series Creators' Insights
"Seven years ago, we planned out the complete story arc for Stranger Things," Matt and Ross Duffer wrote in an open letter to fans, per the Hollywood Reporter. "At the time, we predicted the story would last four to five seasons. It proved too large to tell in four, but - as you’ll see for yourselves - we are now hurtling toward our finale."
Release Schedule for Season 5
- The fifth season will premiere on Netflix on Thursday, 27th November 2025.
- The season will be split into three parts:
- First four episodes in November
- Next three episodes on 26th December
- Final episode on 1st January
Looking Ahead
The cast has grown older, making this conclusion timely and well-balanced. Fans and critics alike are eager to see what the Duffer Brothers will create next, potentially even a Stranger Things spin-off, which Variety suggests may be in the works.
