Netflix Released The First Five Minutes Of Stranger Things Season 5 And It Looks Like We Are About To Have Another Banger On Our Hands

Netflix released the first five minutes of Season 5 preview showing Will Byers' ordeal in the Upside Down and setting up the final battle against Vecna.

  • On Wednesday, November 26, Netflix posted the first five minutes of Stranger Things Season 5 online and announced two late-night London screenings with registration via promo code `ST5FANS` at 10:15 pm and 12:30 am.
  • The five-minute trailer leans heavily on nostalgia, taking viewers back to the series' original-era setting and encouraging 80s-inspired attire, while marketing frames Season 5 as Hawkins under lockdown with the party united to hunt Vecna.
  • Will Byers appears in Castle Byers as Vecna wraps him in fleshy vines while the Demogorgon drags Will’s limp body back to Vecna after he falls from the trees.
  • Fans can watch the show two weeks early via special access, but Netflix warns there is a major catch to that early viewing.
  • Critics called the preview a rehash, while production choices like CGI de-aging and Demogorgon durability signal the finale's large scale and complex narrative.
