Netflix Unveils First Look at ‘Stranger Things Season 5’ With Behind-the-Scenes Footage
Netflix unveils a first look at the cast and sets of ‘Stranger Things’ Season 5!
The beloved show is gearing up for its final season, and to kick things off, Netflix released behind-the-scenes footage showcasing on and off-screen moments of the cast filming the last chapter. One person in the video even calls it “the best season yet!” The footage reveals that Stranger Things is halfway through filming its “exciting” fifth season. Maya Hawke and Joe Keery appear first, announcing day one of Season 5.
The video features Millie Bobby Brown, the heart of the show as Eleven. She drives to the set, noting it’s been a decade since she first filmed for the series. “I started when I was 10. I’m now turning 20. Feels very weird,” she shares.

The camera then follows Sadie Sink, who plays Max, into the costume warehouse, where she points out her character’s iconic blue and yellow hoodie. “We’re just kind of savouring every single moment,” she says in a voiceover.
The footage includes scenes of the entire cast, both young and old, filming together, and highlights a moment between Charlie Heaton and Natalia Dyer, whose on-screen romance as Jonathan and Nancy has also become real-life love. The original boys’ gang—Mike, Dustin, Will, and Lucas—is back with their usual antics! Finn Wolfhard, who plays Mike, expresses his excitement about having “scenes with the original four.”
Overall, the clip is emotional, serving as a reminder of the end of an era. The stakes this season are enormous! Although Will was saved from Vecna last season, he could still sense Vecna’s presence. An epic showdown between Eleven and Vecna, who share a deeper connection, is likely!
Will’s character arc, involving his struggles with demons and identity, is expected to reach a satisfying conclusion. Finally, fans will learn whether Hawkins will fall to Vecna’s terror or if the evil monster will be defeated for good!
