Stranger Things season five, set to be Netflix’s most-watched show, has wrapped filming, but the release date update may disappoint fans. While production has officially concluded, the wait for the final season is longer than expected, leaving viewers eager for what’s next.

Find out what we know about the release and how the cast reacted to wrapping filming. We’ll keep updating as new information surfaces!

Has Stranger Things Season 5 Wrapped Filming? 

Yes, Stranger Things Season 5 has officially wrapped filming and is set to premiere in 2025. The series' creators, Matt and Ross Duffer, shared heartfelt reflections on the journey, noting how the show has shaped not only the cast, many of whom grew up on set, but also the crew, who have been integral since day one.

While fans are excited about the wrap, the extended post-production process means the wait for the show's final season will be long, likely stretching into late 2025. This marks a gap of over three years since season four, one of the longest waits in the series' history. Despite the delay, anticipation continues to grow for the epic conclusion of Netflix’s flagship series.

Finn Wolfhard (Mike Wheeler) expressed disbelief at the journey’s end, reminiscing about their beginnings and sharing his hope that fans will love the final season as much as he does.
