Producer Shaw Levy has revealed to the audience some elements of season three of Stranger Things. Love, movie references and new characters: here is a summary of the information.
Stranger Things is one of Netflix's most popular series, according to statistics released by the platform. In 2017, season two introduced a few new characters, such as Erica Sinclair, Lucas' little sister. His short appearances won over the audience. Young actress Priah Ferguson got a recurring role in season three. And not least! She and her "army of friends" will have to save the town of Hawkins from a mysterious and unexpected threat. Another actress joins the gang. Maya Thurman-Hawke (Little Women ) will play Robin, a young woman looking for adventure… and find it by unearthing a dark secret to Hawkins. The main actors are also delighted to play in this third season. Millie Bobby Brown (Eleven), Finn Wolfhard (Mike), Gaten Matarazzo (Dustin), Noah Schnapps (Will) and Caleb McLaughlin (Lucas) have been increased. They will go from $30,000 per episode to $250,000. Natalia Dyer (Nancy Wheeler ) and Charlie Heaton (Jonathan Byers) will receive between $100,000 and $150,000 per episode.
The Return of Papa Steve
Steve Harrington also grew in popularity in season two. The teenager went from being Nancy's boyfriend to being the adoptive father of a group of middle school students. This new status of "dad" has greatly pleased the fans."We'll definitely see more of Steve Harrington. And I'll just say we're not going to give up on the magic of Papa Steve," says producer Shaw Levy. Season three will take place in 1985, a year after the events of season two. This jump in time naturally explains the physical change of adolescent actors. 1985 was also the year of the theatrical release of the first film in the Back to the Future saga. Season two had made a big nod to Ghostbuster. So we expect to see the four friends discussing time travel or trying to build a DeLorean.
It will be another year before we can watch season three of Stranger Things on Netflix.
