Stranger Things fans will have to wait a bit longer for the return of the Netflix series. Via Twitter, the Duffer brothers revealed that production of the series’ final season would be delayed due to the writers strike. The series creators are unwilling to start filming without having writers on set to make script adjustments where necessary.
Starring Winona Ryder, David Harbour, Finn Wolfhard, Natalia Dyer, Charlie Heaton, Millie Bobby Brown, Caleb McLaughlin, Gaten Matarazzo, Cara Buono, Noah Schnapp, Joe Keery, Sadie Sink, Dacre Montgomery, Maya Hawke, and Priah Ferguson, the sci-fi horror series, which is set during the 1980s, follows the residents of a small town and the supernatural events that surround them.
The Duffer brothers said the following about the delay impacting Stranger Things, per Deadline:
“Duffers here. Writing does not stop when filming begins. While we’re excited to start production with our amazing cast and crew, it is not possible during this strike. We hope a fair deal is reached soon so we can all get back to work. Until then — over and out. #wgastrong”
A premiere date for Stranger Things season five will be announced at some point in the future. Season five had been expected to debut sometime this year.
