Maya Hawke is giving an update on Stranger Things season five.
The 25-year-old actress made an appearance on the Podcrushed podcast, where she was asked about how filming is going.
She confirmed that there’s 8 episodes, which are apparently movie-length for the show’s final season. She shared, “We’re making, basically, eight movies. The episodes are very long.”
Maya portrays Robin on the show, and will be returning for the final episodes.
She then added that it will take them the rest of the year to finish filming. They began filming in January. Season four aired in 2022.
“They are very intense and serious about the quality of the continued writing, and so it takes a long time to write each season and a long time to shoot them,” she explained about how long it has taken for season five to get going.
We also have info on one cast member who is exiting the series after appearing in season four!
