Netflix confirms second outing of the surprise ’80s horror fantasy hit - by New Idea Writer

Huge news for Stranger Things fans! Stranger Things/Netflix

In huge news for Stranger Things fans, Netflix has confirmed that a second season has been commissioned.

Following the enormous success of the first season, it seemed inevitable that the ’80s sci-fi fantasy horror series would be renewed, but now fans can officially breathe a sigh of relief, with the announcement that the show will return in 2017.

And according to the show’s creators, the Duffer Brothers, we can expect almost all of the original cast to return when the supernatural action picks back up in Hawkins, Indiana in the fall of 1984.

...

‘We leave that up in the air,' creator Ross Duffer says of whether or not Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) will return

So does that mean Eleven, played by Millie Bobby Brown, is still alive and set to return, as was suggested by Hopper’s (David Harbour) offering of Eggos frozen waffles left out in the wilderness in the finale?

‘We don’t know about Eleven,’ Ross Duffer admits. ‘We leave that up in the air.’

What we do know is that the creepy Upside Down world will be explored in far more detail next time around.

‘We kinda just peeled back the curtain and revealed a tiny by of the Upside Down,’ Matt Duffer previews. ‘So we definitely want to explore a little bit more. There’s a lot we don’t know about the Upside Down at the end of season one.’

With season two featuring an additional ninth episode, Matt reveals it was a conscious decision not to diverge too far from the original format.

‘We’re letting the story dictate it. I think if it gets any longer, it gets inwieldy for us,’ he explains. ‘We want to make sure it’s manageable and we want to be able to tell a movie-like story where it’s never treading water. We want it to have the same feel and pacing as season one. I think if we extend it too much, it will have a very different feel.’

Ross also explains that while they considered jumping forward in time, they ultimately decided against it as they all felt there was more story to be told in the ’80s.

‘We talked like a larger time jump where the kids are older now and it’s a different decade. That’s something we batted around from the very beginning,’ he says. ‘But for us, there’s still more story here, there’s still things that are unresolved.’

...

According to creators the Duffer Brothers, season two will take a closer look at the scary - and deadly - Upside Down
