‘Stranger Things’ Season 2: Photos Of First Table Read Released As Show Begins Production

We’re back in the Upside down people! Stranger Things Season 2 production has officially begun.

The Netflix original series shared a black-and-white photo of the cast with their scripts preparing for a table read. We don’t know what’s going on, but we’re hyped.

Shawn Levy, Stranger Things producer and director, recently shared his thoughts about the show’s second season during an interview with Southern California Public Radio. The show’s incredible 80s vibe and loveable cast helped propel the series to success, but the creepy storytelling will keep people coming back for more. Fans will expect even more outrageous and creepy storylines in the show’s second season.

“Yes, the pressure is on. It would be so blatantly disingenuous of me to say differently,” Levy said. “It’s scary to have people love something this much. It becomes impossible to banish all thoughts of not wanting to disappoint. This has been the challenge of it: on the one hand as we’ve see in the movie world, to do a follow-up that feels like the same thing is disappointing to an audience; to abandon things or change things, that disappoints the audience.”

Levy also added, “A lot of Season 2 is next level, some crazy stuff, but we must service these characters who are now beloved, who are known to the audience.”

Give us more Eleven! We need her and Eggos in our lives. Also, can we explore the Upside Down a bit more? Eleven is clearly hiding there since Jim Hopper is leaving her food, right? So many questions. Stranger Things Season 2 does not have a set release date, but it will likely premiere on Netflix some time in 2017.
