“It’s always wonderful when the kind of riddle of a world that gets built, starts to get resolved and questions start to be answered.”
The “Inside Out 2” actress told Collider that “Stranger Things 5” is an “extremely exciting” adventure leading into the final two episodes to conclude the show.
“I do know what happens before then and it’s extremely exciting,” Hawke said. “It’s always wonderful when the kind of riddle of a world that gets built, starts to get resolved and questions start to be answered. I think it was mind-bogglingly wonderful for me and I think audiences will feel that way too.”
She added, “It’s really an emotional thing to go into filming this last season, so I’m excited. I haven’t gotten to read the final scripts yet, so I haven’t had a reaction and I actually genuinely know nothing about the last two episodes of the show.”
The “Wildcat” star echoes the statements of her fellow “Stranger Things” breakouts like Joe Keery and Sadie Sink, both of whom lamented about just how emotional closing this chapter will be. Co-star David Harbour teased that the series’ conclusion will be “very, very moving.”
“They’re terrific, as per usual,” Harbour said. “They continue to outdo themselves, these currently on-strike writers called the Duffer Brothers. It’s a hell of an undertaking, too. I mean, the set pieces and the things in the scripts that we saw are bigger than anything we’ve done in the past…I’m excited to wrap it up in a bold, amazing way.”
“Stranger Things” series director and executive producer Shawn Levy said during the “Happy Sad Confused” podcast in November 2023 that the final season will be “epic in its cinematic scope” and rival blockbuster movies.
“I have to credit [creators] the Duffer Brothers. You read the outlines sometimes and it’s massive, but then you read the scripts and you remember again and again that their instinct for anchoring the epic in the intimate, and for anchoring the darkness of genre in the warmth of these characters, it’s so innate to them,” Levy said. “Season 5 gets bigger in scale but doesn’t forget who or what it is.”
