Following the announcement earlier today that Netflix has renewed Stranger Things for a second season, additional details about Season 2 have been revealed.
Series co-creators Matt and Ross Duffer spoke to Entertainment Weekly about the upcoming nine-episode season, confirming that the core cast will be back, including Mike (Finn Wolfhard), Joyce (Winona Ryder) and Dustin (Gaten Matarazzo).
That said, the return of Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) is uncertain, with Ross Duffer saying, "we leave that up in the air."
Joining the crew of familiar faces will be four newcomers, Matt Duffer confirmed, saying "there's going to be a lot of new and interesting dynamics that we didn’t see in Season 1." He also noted that they're approaching Season 2 like one would when making a sequel to a movie blockbuster, drawing inspiration from the work of James Cameron, citing films like Aliens and Terminator 2. Much like Cameron's work, the Duffer Brothers aim to create a followup season that feels different but retains the magic of the original.
Matt Duffer also revealed that Hawkins won't be the the only location featured in Stranger Things: Season 2, revealing that the premiere's opening scene won't take place in the Indiana-set town. The Duffer Brothers also plan to explore more of the show's alternate dimension, so you can expect to see more of the Upside Down in the show's second season.
Stranger Things: Season 2 will premiere on Netflix in 2017. In the meantime, find out how Silent Hill, Dark Souls and The Last of Us influenced the Duffer's popular sci-fi thriller series.
