After almost a decade of thrilling fans around the globe, Stranger Things is coming to an end. Netflix has officially announced that filming for the final season has been completed. The journey to wrap up this iconic series wasn’t easy, as production faced significant delays last year due to strikes by SAG-AFTRA and the Writers Guild of America.
Despite these challenges, filming was completed after nearly a year of hard work. Back in January, Netflix had shared the exciting news that cameras were rolling for the final battle in Hawkins.
This last season will showcase the ultimate showdown between Eleven, played by Millie Bobby Brown, and Vecna, portrayed by Jamie Campbell Bower. Their intense conflict began in the fourth season, when Eleven had to push her powers to the limit to take on the menacing villain.
In this final chapter, Eleven will have the unwavering support of her closest friends. Mike (Finn Wolfhard), Dustin (Gaten Matarazzo), Will (Noah Schnapp), and Lucas (Caleb McLaughlin) are all set to play vital roles in this epic confrontation.

His character, first introduced in Black Widow, will return in upcoming Marvel projects like What If…?

Netflix recently celebrated the conclusion of filming by sharing behind-the-scenes photos from the set. The images show the cast, including Joe Keery, Maya Hawke, and Charlie Heaton, enjoying moments of laughter and camaraderie between takes.
These photos capture the close bond that the actors have formed over the years. Fans have cherished watching the cast grow together both on-screen and off-screen as they bring the Hellfire Club’s adventures to life.
