Stranger Things’ star Finn Wolfhard admits he accidentally spoiled series spinoff
Recently, Stranger Things star Finn Wolfhard recalled the time he unintentionally figured out the premise of the Duffer Brothers’ upcoming spinoff.
Finn, who plays Mike Wheeler in the Netflix horror-sci-fi series, admitted on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon that he almost gave away the spinoff’s plot.
Wolfhard joked to Jimmy Fallon that the cast of Stranger Things 4 discussed the possibility of a fifth season, saying things like, “Oh, they’re all going to have us back in 20 years, and we’re all going to [be] fat and old.”
Despite the Duffer Brothers’ best efforts, Finn correctly predicted the show’s premise. “And then they yanked me away… and said, ‘That’s the concept. To which I replied, “No one.” when asked “Who told you?” “His words.
Finn elaborated, “Then they asked, “What do you mean?” You thought of that on your own? and I responded, “Well, actually, I just thought that would be an interesting way to grow.” And they were all, “Okay, well… don’t tell anyone; it’s funny, but don’t tell anyone.””
The Duffer Brothers made it clear in June 2022 that the upcoming spinoff would feature an original story.
In the meantime, a six-hour long anime spinoff will be added to the Stranger Things Cinematic Universe.
