Finn Wolfhard Addresses Concerns About Stranger Things Finale

Finn Wolfhard, who has portrayed Mike Wheeler since Stranger Things premiered in 2016, recently opened up about the cast's concerns regarding the show's final season. Initially, everyone involved was worried about potentially disappointing fans, especially after witnessing the negative reaction to Game of Thrones' controversial ending. However, Wolfhard's confidence grew significantly after reading the final season's scripts.

He believes the creative team has successfully crafted something special for the series conclusion. The final season represents a major undertaking for the production team.

Creators Matt and Ross Duffer spent an entire year filming and accumulated over 650 hours of footage, describing the season as equivalent to 'eight blockbuster movies.' This ambitious approach suggests they're committed to providing an epic finale. The release strategy involves splitting the final season into two volumes, with the first premiering on November 26 and the second arriving on Christmas, culminating in a New Year's Eve finale.

Wolfhard's journey with the show has been particularly meaningful, as he's grown up alongside his character throughout the series' run.
