What did Joe Keery say about the final day of Stranger Things?

As I sat down with Jimmy Fallon recently, I couldn’t help but reflect on the last year I spent on the set of our beloved series. It was a rollercoaster ride, filled with intense filming sessions and tearful goodbyes as we wrapped up this incredible chapter in our lives.

Keery expressed, “It’s amazing how much happened this year. The anticipation and hard work over such a long period – it feels like I’ve been working on it for a significant portion of my life. It was an emotional journey. As we approached the final day, it felt as though all the emotions culminated on that last day of filming.

In the upcoming Season 5 of Stranger Things, we’ll see Winona Ryder reprising her character Joyce Byers, David Harbour as Jim Hopper, Millie Bobby Brown playing Eleven, Finn Wolfhard as Mike Wheeler, Gaten Matarazzo portraying Dustin Henderson, Caleb McLaughlin appearing as Lucas Sinclair, Sadie Sink taking on Maxine “Max” Mayfield, Natalia Dyer in the role of Nancy Wheeler, Charlie Heaton as Jonathan Byers, Joe Keery continuing as Steve Harrington, Maya Hawke acting as Robin Buckley, Priah Ferguson embodying Erica Sinclair, Jamie Campbell Bower joining as Vecna, Cara Buono returning as Karen Wheeler, Amybeth McNulty debuting as Vickie, and Linda Hamilton stepping into a yet-to-be-revealed role.

In the span of May 23rd through May 30th, Stranger Things Season 4 garnered a staggering viewership of over 287 million hours on Netflix. This not only secured the number one position for Netflix that week but also surpassed the record for the biggest premiere weekend ever for an English-language series on their streaming platform.
