Cast
The cast of Stranger Things has obviously been renewed for the new season. For the adults, we find David Harbor, who at the same time is playing the title role in the new version of Hellboy, in the role of police chief Jim Hopper, and Wynona Ryder in that of Joyce Byers, Will and Jonathan’s mother.
But the kids are obviously the real stars of the show - Millie Bobby Brown (Eleven), Finn Wolfhard (Mike), Noah Schnapp (Will), Caleb Mclaughlin (Lucas) and Gaten Matarazzo (Dustin) are all back.
Maya Thurman-Hawke (the daughter of Uma and Ethan) will join the cast in the role of Robin, a new character who discovers a huge secret in Hawkins. Aged 19, she should be part of the group of older kids alongside Natalia Dyer (Nancy), Charlie Heaton (Jonathan) and fan favourite Joe Keery (Steve).
