'Stranger Things' Season 4 Set To Resume Filming This Month

Stranger Things fans will be pleased to know that Season 4 of the sci-fi Netflix show is expected to resume filming later this month.

Which means we're one step closer to the next instalment hitting our screens!

According to Deadline, the show is thought to be resuming shooting on Monday 28th September. Of course, with the ever developing situation, this is subject to change.

Season 4 of Stranger Things had only been filming a couple of weeks when Netflix suspended production in March.

It was expected to air in July this year, so we're hoping it might be back on our screens in early 2021?!

Fans have been desperate for Season 4 ever since the dramatic Season 3 ending, which saw Jim Hopper apparently closing The Upside Down to protect his adopted daughter Eleven from harm.

However, his body was never shown which led people to speculate that he was killed. However, it turns out Hopper did survive (phew) and can be seen in the trailer below:

In a statement, Netflix said that it was "not all good news" for Hopper, however. "He is imprisoned far from home in the snowy wasteland of Kamchatka, where he will face dangers both human... and other," they said.

"Meanwhile, back in the states, a new horror is beginning to surface, something long buried, something that connects everything...."

Sounds absolutely terrifying - but we can't wait to watch it play out!

And in even better news for the show, last month creators confirmed Stranger Things will go on beyond the fourth season.

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, creators Ross and Matt Duffer announced the news, explaining the pandemic has given them more time to work on scripts.

Ross said: "Season four won't be the end. We know what the end is, and we know when it is.

"[The coronavirus pandemic] has given us time to look ahead, figure out what is best for the show. Starting to fill that out gave us a better idea of how long we need to tell that story."

Meanwhile, Matt added: "We've had a lot more time to work on the scripts. For the first time, we have all the scripts written and we're able to look at it as a whole piece and make adjustments."

Bring it on!
