Joe Keery, who plays Mike, is conflicted about the season finale of Stranger Things on Netflix.
“It does feel like it’s time,” Keery told Women’s Wear Daily, adding that “it won’t be easy for it to end.”
The 31-year-old actor discussed his experiences on the show and their significance to him. He claimed, “I owe my entire career to being on that show,” explaining that his subsequent success was due to his appearance on the program. It’s a mess,” they said. It’s a bittersweet mix of relief and loss.”
In 2016, Netflix was the first to showcase the show Stranger Things after it had been pitched to multiple other sources.
Millie Bobby Brown, Finn Wolfhard, and Gaten Matarazzo are just a few of the young actors who have found success thanks to the show. When the show first cast Keery, then age 23, to play Steve Harrington, the character’s arc spanned all four seasons.
The last season of the program has been put on hold owing to a strike by the show’s writers and actors, but when production begins, Keery will be ready to go. Because “it’s been an amazing ride with such great people,” he said, “I guess my goal is just to really soak it up as much as I can while we’re doing it and not take any of it for granted.” “And then, once it’s done, move forward and try just to hold on to the joy that we had when we were making it.”
Millie Bobby Brown, who has played Eleven since she was 11 years old, has also expressed a desire to leave the show. It seems like I’m ready. It’s played such a significant role in my life, but now I feel like I’m in my final year of high school. In other words, “you’re ready to go and blossom and flourish and you’re grateful for the time you’ve had, but it’s time to create your own message and live your own life.”
Winona Ryder, a series regular, will return for Season 5 alongside Jamie Campbell Bower and Linda Hamilton, star of Terminator, in an unspecified role.
Keery seems to have a firm grasp on the reason why all excellent stories must have a conclusion as his time in Hawkins, Indiana winds down. The beginning, the middle, and the end, he told WWD. In addition, “It’ll be nice to have the end of this too.”
