STRANGER THINGS 2 Will Open Up the World in a Completely New Way
Stranger Things season two can't get here soon enough! I just want to see what happens next with these characters. We know the story is set a year after the events of the first season and things are going to get crazy, but the details are still a mystery. All we have at this point is a bunch of cool information that we get to speculate about. We have more of that kind of information to add to the discussion today.
In a recent interview with Vanity Fair, David Harbour, who plays Jim Hooper in the series, talks about reading the script for the first time, his excitement for Season 2, and teases what we can expect to see from it.
"I got the first script of season two, and the first five minutes I was on my feet going, ‘Yes! Yes!’ Because they open up the world in such a new way. And these characters that I feel like are so iconic, and that we love so deeply, get to really go on different arcs and different journeys and explore these little things that we touched on in their personalities and psychologies. And we get to really expand on that… I really do think it’s going to be thrilling. And you can tweet at me that I’m an idiot if it’s not."
Harbour recently has gotten a lot of attention from his rousing SAG Awards speech in which he vowed to "shelter freaks and outcasts," "hunt monsters," and "punch some people in the face." When previously talking about the upcoming season, the actor said:
“It’s a year later in the story, so there are several things that happened last year, like Will has come back. There are certain people in the town that know what happened, and then certain people that don’t know what happened. So there’s a lot of fall out with who knows what.”
Stranger Things season two will be back before we know it! I think I'm going to have to plan a big party for this one!
