Finn Wolfhard has confirmed that the cast of Stranger Things remains in the dark about Season 5 ending and expresses how he wants the series to end.

Taking it to Instagram, Yankovic posted a photo on his official account featuring himself alongside Stranger Things stars Finn Wolfhard (Mike Wheeler) and Gaten Matarazzo (Dustin Henderson). The photo made fans excited, but it was the caption that took things to a whole new level. He captioned the photo, “Yesterday was pretty bizarre, but stranger things are happening today.” The post turned out to be a delight for fans of both the famous comedian and the popular Netflix series. This might simply be a case of Yankovic meeting the two stars of the series and wanting to capture the moment with a photo. However, fans believe that it is much more than that.

On the other hand, it could also hint at a possible appearance by Yankovic in Stranger Things Season 5. Yankovic's peak popularity coincides with the 1980s, the era in which Stranger Things is set. His presence would enhance the show's nostalgic vibe and resonate with fans who grew up during that time. People know him for his quirky humor and that’s one of the reasons why the singer-songwriter would add a unique charm to the series. Meanwhile, he could provide some light-hearted moments amid the show’s darker themes. Subsequently, his involvement would generate a lot of buzz and attract attention from both his fandom and the media, potentially making way for new viewers to see the show.

Although plot details have been kept under wraps, recent reports and behind-the-scene images have made it clear that some important characters might die while fighting Vecna one last time. One of the rumored titles of Season 5 suggests that one of the Wheelers might be in danger. According to a report, the second episode of the fifth and final season of the Netflix series is called The Vanishing of [SPOILER] Wheeler. While it hasn't been confirmed that Mike is the one disappearing in the rumored second episode of Season 5, the situation seems grim for him. Currently, there’s no release date for the upcoming and final edition of the series. However, reports indicate that Stranger Things might make a comeback in 2025.

All four seasons of Stranger Things are available for streaming on Netflix.
