Four new faces are heading to Hawkins, Indiana. Stranger Things season 4 is currently in production, and a handful of fresh faces have joined the cast.
Netflix just dropped a major bomb, by announcing that four new faces have been added to the upcoming season, including the star of another beloved series from the giant streaming site. Based on the descriptions of the new characters, it sounds like Hawkins High School will be a major part of the season, which fans are keeping their fingers crossed and their hopes high that it means the Byers family and Eleven will be back in town soon after leaving in the season three finale.
