‘Stranger Things’ Star David Harbour Reveals When Season 5 Will Start Filming

Collider reports today that David Harbour announced that Stranger Things will begin filming its fifth and final season this June. Harbour, who plays Detective Jim Hopper on the Netflix series, made the announcement at the Middle East Film & Comic Con this weekend in Abu Dhabi.

Here’s what Harbour had to say about the start of filming of what should be the final season of Stranger Things:

“We’re walking into season five. I’ve got a couple more months to train. We start shooting that in June, though, and that will be the final season. I did a lot of training for season four. He [Hopper] was in a very specific position, that Russian prison. It was about making him a different guy and sort of shedding a layer of himself physically, mentally, and emotionally. But now he’s back in town, he’s back in America where they have cheeseburgers, so he will be well-fed.”

Harbour gave little away in terms of plot, though it is relieving to be reminded of Hopper’s return to the United States. As the actor noted, his character spent the majority of the fourth season in a Russian prison. Seeing Hopper reunited with Joyce (Winona Ryder) and his adopted daughter, Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown), was a highlight in the final moments of Season 4, and will undoubtedly carry over to the show’s final episodes.

Alongside Harbour, Ryder, and Brown, Stranger Things stars, Finn Wolfhard, Gaten Matarazzo, Noah Schnapp, Caleb McLaughlin, Natalia Dyer, Charlie Heaton, Joe Keery, Cara Buono, Maya Hawke, Sadie Sink, Priah Ferguson, Brett Gelman. Shawn Levy (Free Guy, Real Steel) produces the series alongside Dan Cohen.
