Stranger Things creators defend season 5's three-part split, and you'll be fine with it too once you hear their plans for Volume One's "mega-movie"

Stranger Things season 5.

Stranger Things is coming to a close with a three-part final season split over two months. No, wait, come back! As creators the Duffer Brothers reveal, it's actually allowing the Netflix series' endgame to expand even more in scope this time around.

"I'm also excited about the first volume because, in season four, we weren't aware that it was going to get split in two," Ross Duffer said in an interview with SFX Magazine. "It's not Netflix's fault, it's nobody’s fault. There was the pandemic, and we ended up dividing it in two so we could get episodes out sooner. But this time, we knew we were going to divide it into two, so it really is in two halves. Volume One really exists as its own mega-movie. It has its own climax."
