Stranger Things - Details For Season 2

Although Stranger Things hasn't officially been renewed for season two, it's fairly easy to surmise that it will be renewed. IGN spoke with the creators of Stranger Things at the Television Critics Association panel and they discussed where season 2 could go.

IGN asked where they would go, timeline-wise and if they would have to deal with the kids getting older. Matt Duffer said, "yeah, you have to do the Harry Potter thing. You have to jump a year. Because like Gaten [Matarazzo], his voice has already dropped quite a bit, to the point where we couldn’t even do ADR with him. We had to pitch it way up. It’s dropped. He’s grown. As much as I would love to have it be Christmas right after that, it’s just not feasible, so we’re going to skip a year. They’ll be a year older and all their changes they’re going through, we’ll take that into account and kind of work that into the show."

Ross added, "it’s also just exciting having these initial conversations about it because the jump allows us to say "what happened in that year?" It actually opens up a lot more storytelling possibilities. These characters have changed and the audience has to sort of fill in those gaps of what went on in that year. To us, it’s exciting. So the fact that we have to make this jump, because of the kids, we’re trying to use that to our advantage".
