Could season two of Strange Things get even stranger? IGN recently spoke to creators Ross and Matt Duffer about the future of the Netflix series.
The supernatural drama follows the search for a young boy who mysteriously goes missing. The cast includes Winona Ryder, Matthew Modine, David Harbour, Finn Wolfhard, Millie Brown, Gaten Matarazzo, and Caleb McLaughlin.
When asked what a second season would look like, Matt said it would be more of a sequel than a direct continuation of season one:
We wanted to do a couple things with this season. We didn’t want to do The Killing thing. We wanted it to resolve that main thing of Will going missing in the first season. So in that sense, it is like an eight-hour movie. Now, we don’t answer all the questions by the end of the season – there are definitely some dangling threads. The hope is that it feels satisfying but that we left room and that if people respond to it we can go back into this world. But if we do get to go back, it’s not a second season as much as a sequel.”
While Netflix hasn’t officially renewed Stranger Things for a second season, star Matthew Modine says season two’s already been ordered.
Stranger Things premiered today, July 15th, on Netflix.
What do you think? Have you seen Stranger Things yet? Are you excited about the Netflix series?
Excellent show. Great story, great acting, great move setting it in the 80’s. More than nostalgia, the simpler time lends itself to some interesting story ideas. Please make more. Those kids can have multiple adventures in that universe.
Another phenomenal thumbs up for Netflix! Incredible story, extremely engrossing! When is season 2?
Loved the show hope to see season 2 soon
Love the show I hope they renew for season 2 supernatural all the way…loved it
Definitely worth another season!
I LOVE this show. The acting was wonderful by all, but especially that of Millie Brown, that little girl is captivating, to say the least. Please continue the journey!!
This series is absolutely awesome. Having grown up in the eighties, this series is a perfect combination of E.T.,Goonies and Stand By Me. Great acting alongside a compelling and thought-provoking story line. I want more!!!
Amazing show…me (35) and my wife (30) love it! They did an amazing job making you feel as tho you are back in the 1980s…it is intense…and simply brilliant…how did we not hear more about this show? If netflix doesn’t run this mind blowing thriller a second season then HBO or ,heck, even prime time television should buy the rights and cash in on this hidden jewel…i can’t imagine anyone 16-60 yrs old not enjoying this show as it has something for everyone! We give it 4 thumbs up and do not want the ride to end only after one… Read more »
I just binge watched this, this morning and now I’m rewatching it again with a friend. Amazing! I think Netflix needs to make more shows in this generation and HELL YES to another season!!
Husband and I have watched the first 5 episodes so far. It’s entertaining and makes you want to see the next episode!
Fantastic, riveting and must watch storytelling. Fantastic period piece and the acting was top notch.
Please do another season but not a continuation of the Will and friends stories. I would love more of 11 and her story!
It is SOOOO good! Please make more seasons! It’s a BIG universe! We need to know more about it!
Loved it. Scared me and brought binge watching to a new level!
Extraordinary acting, adults and kids alike.
This show is effing AWEOME! It felt like a Steven King story! Can not wait for season 2!
