Stranger Things: Final episode of season 4 will be a little shorter than expected

Well, not much. While Netflix initially announced that the final episode of season 4 of Strangers Things will run for 2 hours and 30 minutes, the official Twitter account of the series’ writers just released a minor update. Finally, the episode should be “only” 2 hours and 19 minutes.

These are numbers that made the internet talk about their publication. For season 4 of its flagship series, Netflix has gone into overdrive: the episodes are very long, reaching over two hours for some. The last episode, in particular, lasts 2 hours and 30 minutes, depending on the platform.

Suffice it to say that you have to plan several evenings to watch the series in good condition. “A lot of it is because we had characters in three places and we had a lot more storylines,” Matt Duffer explained on the topic. “This season we knew that season 5 would be our last, we had a lot to reveal.” But in the end, the screenwriters of the series returned to the duration of the last episode

The last episode of season 4 of Stranger Things is getting (slightly) shorter

Indeed, on their official Twitter account, they have updated the duration of the latest episode. According to them, the latter should no longer take “just” 2 hours and 19 minutes. So a slight decrease, but it won’t change much from the complaints of spectators who thought the initial duration was too long. This didn’t stop this fourth season from capturing the best start in Netflix history. As for the following, we have very little information about it yet.

We recently learned that Deadpool actor Ryan Reynolds will be joining the cast. In this regard, actor David Harbour, who plays Jim Hopper on the screen, happily stated: “I know what is happening and it is very moving, very beautiful”. For now, we still have to wait for the broadcast on Netflix of the second volume of this season 4.
