Stranger Things is bringing everything back to the beginning with the upcoming fifth and final season, which is set to kick off with a flashback featuring a de-aged Will Byers.
"It was weird. I will say that I had to work with a younger kid, which was actually really cool and a full circle moment for me, because it felt like, 'Oh, wow, now I'm the adult telling this kid what to do, and I'm no longer that little boy being told where to stand,'" Will actor Noah Schnapp told SFX magazine. "It just helped me reflect on all the years that passed, and he was a really sweet kid. And I got my little taste of directing, and worked with him for a few days on set to get his physicality and running and breath work the same as mine. Then they put me in a tent and had me do all these different expressions and faces, like fear, and running and all these things. It was so weird.
