“They’re waiting to give us the last episode,” Wolfhard toldAccess Online, “We’ve read up to the second-to-last episode so we’re all on the edge of our seats to find out what the ending is.”
It’s not just theITstar who has been kept in the dark about the season finale as Stranger Things' Millie Bobby Brown also does not know how the journey ends. Brown evenbroke into the writer’s roomto try and find out what happens to her character in particular.
But it looks like Wolfhard has some ideas of his own for how the highly anticipated finale should play out. “Truly, I would love a Lord of the Rings style happy ending,” said the star, referring to the epic ending ofThe Lord of the Rings: The Return of the Kingwhich saw the surviving Fellowship happily reunited in Minas Tirith, wrapping up one of the greatest film franchises of all time.
We don’t know about you, but something tells us that Stranger Things’ villainVecnamay not let Hawkins have the same ending. Although the show’s creators are keeping the plot of season 5 well under wraps, we do know that the final installment will pick up straight after theend of season 4which saw the California crew return to Hawkins and go against the big bad. But despite the group managing to hurt the lord of The Upside Down, he is still very much alive.
In an interview withGamesRadar+, Wolfhard compared Vecna to the villain in his latest projectGhostbusters: Frozen Empire, saying “Vecna is so much more violent and kills and all this stuff. This one’s a little more, Garraka is a little more, and I hate to say it, chill [laughs]. I think Vecna’s probably more evil.” Don’t we know it! So evil that the happy ending dream may be a little far-fetched, Wolfhard.
