Recently, Joe Keery (Steve Harrington) promised that the new season would be worth the wait.
“It definitely gives them more time to write, and I think that that’s always good,” Keery told THR. “I guess there’s the issue of the kids growing, but apart from that, I just think that we want to get the show out as soon as possible for people. That’s definitely true. But something that the [Duffer] brothers have always been extremely, extremely controlling over is just the quality control of the show. So, if this just gives them more time to realize what their vision is, then yeah, I think it could be a good thing.”
When asked if he had any “hyperbolic statements” to make regarding the fourth season, he replied with a laugh and added: “‘It’s crazy! It’s crazy!’ Hmm, what to sayโฆ It’ll be worth the wait, hopefully.”
Natalia Dyer (Nancy Wheeler) also recently shared that the postponement could be a “blessing” and hinted that the new season could have nine episodes like season two.
“Normally, we get the first few scripts, and then they have to keep writing due to the schedule of it,” Dyer shared with The Hollywood Reporter. “And it takes a while to craft a script. So, normally, there’s a kind of ‘writing as we’re going,’ but it seems they’ve had enough time. I think it’s maybe been a blessing for the writers, in some way, because they had the time to just sit down, think, and create. So, yeah, it appears to be that they’ve got it all down.”
When addressing the possibility that the Stranger Things writers posted a stack of nine scripts on social media earlier this year, Dyer replied, “It appears to be.”
The first three seasons of Stranger Things are now streaming on Netflix. Stay tuned for details on Stranger Things Season Four.
