Eleven is Set to Return For STRANGER THINGS Season 2
Ever since season 2 of Stranger Things was announced, the people involved with the series haven't really said much about Eleven or if she will be involved. When previously talking about the series, co-creator Ross Duffer had this to say:
"I think we talked like a larger time jump where the kids are older now and it’s a different decade. That’s something we batted around from the very beginning. But for us, there’s still more story here, there’s still things that are unresolved. We don’t know about Eleven. We leave that up in the air.”
I always assumed Eleven would be back for Season 2 because she's such a great character and the fans would be disappointed if she didn't come back for the next chapter of the story. TVLine is now reporting that she will be back and Millie Bobby Brown will reprise the role.
The report goes on to say that they don't know how many of Season 2’s nine episodes will include Eleven, but they do say that "all signs point to her once again being a series regular." I'm just excited to see the whole gang back together again and to see where this next supernatural adventure takes them.
Season 2 will pick up a year after the events of the first season, which will be in the fall of 1984 and it will dive into the “bigger mythology” behind young Will Byers’ disappearance. For more news on Stranger Things and the upcoming second season, click here.
