StrangerThings creators Matt and Ross Duffer give a positive update on the planned spinoff series once season 5 is over. 'It's going to be different than what anyone is expecting, including Netflix.'
Stranger Things creators Matt and Ross Duffer give a positive update on the progress of the spinoff show. The Duffer Bros. debuted Stranger Things on Netflix in 2016, making stars of the cast, including Millie Bobby Brown, Finn Wolfhard, David Harbour, Joe Keery, Gaten Matarazzo, Natalia Dyer, Caleb McLaughlin, Noah Schnapp, and Sadie Sink household names.
While The Duffer Bros. have already gone on record to say that Stranger Things season 5 will be the last, they've also entertained spinoff ideas over the years. The duo has said previously that they have a plan for the spinoff but have yet to share those plans with anyone, including Netflix. However, Wolfhard has already guessed what it would be, purely by an offhand comment about what they should do for a spinoff in casual conversation.
The reason we haven't done anything is just because you don't want to be doing it for the wrong reasons, and it was just like, 'Is this something I would want to make regardless of it being related to Stranger Things or not?' And definitely. Even if we took the Stranger Things title off of it, I'm so, so excited about it. But it is not… It's going to be different than what anyone is expecting, including Netflix.
Both brothers went on to say that they were genuinely impressed with Wolfhard guessing their spinoff plan, crediting the actor's own creative intuition. "I think the kid's gonna be-I think he's gonna be a director," said Matt Duffer, who noted that Wolfhard was already dipping his toe in directing. No other details were revealed about the spinoff outside its planned development, so it's anyone's guess as to what it will be at this stage.
With Stranger Things serving as Netflix's flagship show, it's hard to imagine them not trying to continue the series in some capacity. A spinoff feels like the right fit, so long as the idea is something that everyone can get behind. It's also possible that the main series could return at some point, perhaps as a sequel series, which is something that's happening more and more these days.
