Netflix wanted to film Stranger Things seasons 3 and 4 back-to-back.
Stranger Things season 2 premieres October 27 on Netflix.
For the time being, only Stranger Things season 3 has been officially confirmed as coming, although one imagines that Netflix will probably be ready and willing to formally greenlight season 4.
With Stranger Things having launched a merchandising cash cow for Netflix, it’s not hard to see why its stars want more of those sweet, sweet dollars.
