Stranger Things season 5 is on the way, but according to new reporting, it may employ a recent Netflix practice for its release date some may find annoying.

Stranger Things creators the Duffer brothers say it's "important for Netflix" that its final season arrives in 2025, but admits there's plenty more still to do before it reaches that target.

The X post caption reads, “Who’s *really* looking for Eleven?” and it includes a “Missing Teen” poster for Jane Hopper — the name Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) was given in Season 2 when Jim Hopper (David Harbour) took her in.

Stranger Things season 5, initially set for 2025, might be delayed. The Duffer Brothers indicate release dates are undecided. Aiming for 2025, even if pushed to the year's end, may compromise quality.

More disappointing news about the Stranger Things season 5 release date as a sprint to the end could delay it further.
