Production [edit]

Evolution [edit]

With the critical and viewership success of the first flavor subsequently its release in July 2016, speculation on a possible second flavor was raised. The Duffer Brothers initially intended for Stranger Things to either be a standalone miniseries[vii] or an album series.[8] They as well considered the possibility of setting a potential second flavour (which they referred to equally a "sequel") in the early 1990s and featuring an older version of the characters, forth with all new characters, who are drawn dorsum to Hawkins later supernatural events brainstorm occurring again.[7] [eight]

However, post-obit the release of the first season, they realized that the likability of the characters – especially the children – was primal to the series' success, and they decided to set up the second season in 1984 and focus on the same characters.[8] Past the stop of July, the Duffer Brothers had outlined a plan for such a flavor if information technology was green-lit,[9] and Netflix's CEO Reed Hastings said in early Baronial that the visitor "would be dumb not to" renew Stranger Things for a second season.[10] On August 31, 2016, Netflix announced it had renewed Stranger Things for a second flavour of nine episodes, to be released in 2017.[11] The Duffer Brothers revealed that the series had been renewed for a second season before the kickoff was released. Regarding the decision to look more than a month later the first season was released to announce the renewal, Matt Duffer said, "it actually concluded upwardly working because it had congenital up to this fever pitch. I judge that's what [Netflix] were intending to do all the fourth dimension."[12]

Writing [edit]

The Duffer Brothers wrote the 2nd flavor to make the combined starting time and second season feel like a complete work, merely setting elements in identify to get forrad with additional seasons if they are green-lit.[13] While most of the story for the 2nd flavour had been decided before the kickoff flavour aired, the Duffer Brothers took in the audience reactions from the starting time flavour to adapt some of the details within the second season. They knew they would not have the same element of audience surprise equally when the series aired anew, and were aware fans wanted to see certain elements, but Ross said "...the betoken is not to give everyone what they think they desire. Because I don't retrieve they really know what they desire."[14]

The Duffer Brothers felt that the second season should be treated more equally a sequel rather than a continuation, and thus have opted to call the 2d Stranger Things ii. This arroyo had some trepidation from Netflix, since the company felt movie sequels typically have a bad reputation, merely the Duffer Brothers pointed out that there had been many successful sequels that surpassed the original film, and felt confident with this name.[15] Despite revealing episode titles for the season in the announcement teaser in order "to provide some hint of where we were going in season two without giving anything away,"[sixteen] [12] Matt Duffer stated that some of the titles would change, since in that location were some things "nosotros didn't want to put on there because we felt like it would give likewise much away,"[12] and because "people are smart on the fucking internet" with fan-created "videos analyzing the chapter titles... right on a lot" of how the titles related to the plot of the flavor.[17] In early on Oct 2017, the Duffer Brothers revealed the final titles for the beginning vi episodes of the season.[eighteen]

Casting [edit]

In October 2016, it was announced that Schnapp and Keery had been promoted to the primary cast for the 2nd season, later each recurring in the starting time flavor, and that Sadie Sink and Dacre Montgomery would join the main cast every bit Max and Billy, respectively.[19] Ryder, Harbour, Wolfhard, Brown, Matarazzo, McLaughlin, Dyer and Heaton also return for the season.[xx] Sean Astin equally Bob Newby and Paul Reiser as Sam Owens are also office of the primary cast in the flavor.[21] For Owens, The Duffer Brothers had referred to the graphic symbol in their pitch to Netflix for the flavour as "Paul Reiser", and specifically alluded to Reiser'due south character Shush in Aliens, with Ross referencing James Cameron'south casting option for that pic, saying, "[Cameron] thought people would inherently trust [Reiser] and information technology would be a twist". Reiser's son was a fan of Stranger Things, and gave his father an early appreciation of the series, and so that by when the production called his amanuensis almost the role, Reiser was excited for the part.[22] Joining them in recurring roles are Linnea Berthelsen as Kali / 8[23] and Brett Gelman as Murray Bauman.[24]

Linda Holmes of National Public Radio also praised the flavor's character development, saying in her review, "There is much to be grateful for in the piece of work given to the returning cast. Dustin and Lucas have the opportunity to be fleshed out a bit more — which is especially welcome with Lucas, who wasn't given a lot of solo fourth dimension in the start flavor to demonstrate exactly what role he plays in what Dustin calls the "political party" made up of the boys and Eleven. Mayhap the most unexpectedly successful motility on this front, though, is to continue to build out Steve across Obstacle Boyfriend, in office past giving him some contact with people too Nancy to work with."[42] Holmes also expressed misgiving, noting that the narrative structure was at times copying from the offset flavor'due south plot line, but overall plant this iteration to be enjoyable despite its shortcomings.[42]
