The final season of “Stranger Things” kicks off next month on Netflix, but the show’s creators are warning fans not to expect the return of one beloved character from the previous season.
Joseph Quinn, who played season four fan-favorite Eddie Munson, has said he’d love to return for the final season despite his character’s apparent death. But the Duffer Brothers, who created the show, told Empire Magazine that’s not happening.
“I love that Joe Quinn is toying with people! But no, he’s dead,” Matt Duffer told the mag. “Joe is so busy anyway, that everyone should know he’s not coming back. He’s shot like five movies since! When the hell has he got time to come and shoot Stranger Things? No, sadly, RIP. He’s fully under that ground.”
Munson was the resident metalhead “freak” of Hawkins, Indiana, and leader of the Hellfire Club for Dungeons & Dragons players. Ostracized by the community and falsely accused of murder, he sacrificed himself in the Upside Down to save his friends while also delivering “the most metal concert in the history of the world.”
But fans know that deaths aren’t always what they appear to be, and many were hoping Munson would somehow be back. He was even asked about it by immigration as he entered the U.S. in 2022.
Assuming the Duffers are being honest, however, that now seems unlikely
The first batch of episodes will hit Netflix on Nov. 26, followed by additional episodes on Dec. 25 and the series finale on Dec. 31.
