Stranger Things is set in 1983 where a mother tries to find her son after he disappears mysteriously in the small town of Hawkins, the story continues in season 2, adding a couple of new characters.
Announcement
Netflix announced Dacre Montgomery has been cast as series regular Billy. He's a girlfriend stealing bad boy that drive a black Camaro. He's charismatic, but violent and unpredictable. He is the older step-brother of Max. Montgomery plays Jason Scott Lee in the upcoming Power Rangers movie.
Sadie Sink has been cast as Max. She's a tom-boy with a complicated history and suspicious of strangers.
Joe Keery who played Steve Harrington and Noah Schnapp who played missing boy Will Byers will be series regulars instead of recurring characters.
Stranger Things S2 Casting Announcement
What We Know
The second season is set one year later and will be more a sequel rather than a continuation. It's been billed as Stranger Things 2, not season 2.
There will be additional settings, the upside down will be explored further, and there will be more monsters.
We knew there would be three new characters, Max, Billy, and Roman. I predicted we would see an '80s Camaro this season and the casting announcement confirms it. Previous rumors were that Max had killed someone.
The Duffer brothers, many writers, and most of the actors will return for season 2. There has been no confirmation about Eleven (Mille Bobby Brown), but I think it's safe to assume she'll be back.
The Duffer brothers will draw inspiration from '80s action-adventure sequels, namely Temple of Doom, The Empire Strikes Back, Aliens, and Terminator 2. James Cameron will be a big influence as his sequels always feel distinctly different.
All nine episodes of season 2 have been named.
- MadMax
- The Boy Who Came Back to Life
- The Pumpkin Patch
- The Palace
- The Storm
- The Pollywog
- The Secret Cabin
- The Brain
- The Lost Brother
