The cast of Stranger Things season 2 talks about what’s coming for the characters
The Netflix show Stranger Things will be back later this year and it’s going to be “a lot more horror oriented,” according to Finn Wolfhard, who plays Mike Wheeler on the show. The kids from the cast, including Millie Bobby Brown (Eleven), Wolfhard, Gaten Matarazzo (Dustin), Caleb McLaughlin (Lucas), and Noah Schnapp (Will) were interviewed by People, where they spoke about Stranger Things‘ second season. They were also photographed for the cover of Emmy magazine, which you can see above.
Wolfhard said of Stranger Things season 2, “I think this season will be a lot more dark. A lot more horror oriented. I think people are going to like it more than the first season.” He also said, “There are going to be some challenges that the characters face that are real. That are disturbing.”
Matarazzo added, “The great thing about this season is you get to see insights into each character on their own. You’re going to see a lot more into the lives of how the characters are coping with what’s been going on… I think they’re all very emotionally scarred. They feel alone, because their best friend [Will] is back and he’s not acting like their best friend anymore. He’s changed.”
The second season, which will premiere on Halloween 2017, is set a year after Will’s return, and everything seems back to normal… but a darkness lurks just beneath the surface, threatening all of Hawkins.
Stranger Things season 2 will star Winona Ryder, David Harbour, Finn Wolfhard, Millie Brown, Gaten Matarazzo, Caleb McLaughlin, Noah Schnapp, Natalia Dyer, Cara Buono, Charlie Heaton, and Matthew Modine. New cast additions include Sadie Sink (Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt), Dacre Montgomery (Power Rangers), Brett Gelman (Blunt Talk, The Other Guys), newcomer Linnea Berthelsen, and ’80s icons Sean Astin (The Goonies) and Paul Reiser (Aliens).
