Many shows and movies come and go, but the buzz around Stranger Things Season 5 remains as strong as it was on the first day, if not more intense. The show has been in the making since 2022 when it was first confirmed and has encountered multiple roadblocks, including the Hollywood strikes that kept the actors away from the sets. The show finally entered production, which was massive news for fans. Recently, an official glimpse into the behind-the-scenes of the fifth season was released, giving fans an exciting peek into the world they've been eager to revisit. But the latest update is even more exciting as it confirms the release year of the show, the most awaited piece of news. 

For the unversed, Stranger Things Season 5 is one of the most eagerly awaited shows in recent times. This is the longest hiatus ever in the span of five seasons, and a much-discussed aspect of this delay is the fact that the actors playing teenage characters are no longer teenagers themselves. Millie Bobby Brown, who is now 20 and married, even mentioned this in the behind-the-scenes video. We now have an update on when the show will be released. Read on to learn everything you need to know.

According to Dexerto, Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos spoke about upcoming big shows on Netflix during the company's Q2 2024 Earnings Interview. He revealed that Stranger Things Season 5 is planned to release in 2025. The show is set to premiere alongside new seasons of many popular shows on the streaming giant, including Wednesday and The Night Agent.

“Looking forward through 2025, you’ve got new seasons of Wednesday, Stranger Things, and The Night Agent, and we’re in production on One Piece, so there’s a ton of excitement there just in our series,” Ted Sarandos said. However, he did not specify the release format for Stranger Things Season 5. It remains unclear whether the streamer will divide the season into two volumes like Season 4 or drop the full season together.
