However, it isn’t all bad news on Netflix as fans were finally given the premiere date for Stranger Things season four on Thursday! The official Twitter account shared a series of posters starring Eleven, Mike, Hopper, Dustin and Lucas, before tweeting: "Every ending has a beginning. Vol. 1 is coming May 27. Vol. 2 is coming July 1."

The news was soon followed up with a letter from the show's creators, the Russo Brothers, who wrote: "With nine scripts, over eight-hundred pages, almost two years of filming, thousands of visual effects shots, and a runtime nearly twice the length of any previous season, Stranger Things 4 was the most challenging season yet, but also the most rewarding one."
