Netflix has begun the countdown to Stranger Things Day by unveiling a series of new character posters for the upcoming fifth and final season, created by Matt and Ross Duffer. With the conclusion of the series arriving later this month, anticipation for Thursday’s celebration is especially high.
The fresh promotional material highlights the key characters who will play pivotal roles in Stranger Things 5, setting the tone for what promises to be an epic finale to the beloved series.
“We spent a full year filming this season,” Ross Duffer said during Netflix’s 2025 lineup event. “By the end, we had captured over 650 hours of footage. It’s our biggest and most ambitious season yet. It’s like eight blockbuster movies. It’s pretty, pretty insane.”
Matt Duffer added, “At the same time, we think — or hope — it’s our most personal story. Filming was super intense and emotional for us and for the cast we’ve worked with for so long. We’ve been making this show together for nearly a decade, and everyone poured their hearts and souls into it.”
As the Duffers bring their decade-long saga to a close, Netflix’s campaign for Stranger Things Day offers fans a taste of the grand yet heartfelt storytelling that has defined the series from the start.
The countdown to Stranger Things Day opens with emotional insights and bold new visuals, setting the stage for the Duffers’ most ambitious and heartfelt season finale yet.
