Winona Ryder has shared updates on the filming of the final season of Netflix's 'Stranger Things', confirming that production is ongoing and expected to continue until the end of the year. Reflecting on the show’s 10-year journey, she described the experience as 'bittersweet' and expressed surprise at its immense success. Filming delays were caused by the recent Writers Guild of America and actors' strikes, but the cast is dedicated to concluding the beloved series by 2025. Ryder revealed that the long episodes of the season feel akin to filming eight movies, hinting at the possibility of a two-part release similar to previous seasons. Despite the challenges, co-stars like Maya Hawke have expressed optimism about the progress being made. Ryder also noted her initial hesitance to commit to such a long-running role, emphasizing her desire to balance it with other projects, such as the upcoming 'Beetlejuice' sequel.
