Director Confirms That Some Episodes of ‘Stranger Things 4″ Are Longer than Movies
Stranger Things 4 will finally be released later in the month. Netflix has made the wait of three years for more Hawkins action worth it by making the new season absurdly long.
Stranger Things 4 actually has one fewer episode than Stranger Things 3 did, but series creator Ross Duffer confirmed that the total runtime is almost twice as long.
Director Shawn Levy revealed that the new season’s episodes are packed with a lot in an amazing interview with IGN. He confirmed that there will be a few episodes that are longer than his movies.
Levy stated that he has released two movies during season 4. “We have many episodes that are longer than Free Guy or The Adam Project.”
Free Guy takes 1 hour 55 minutes while The Adam Project takes 1 hour 46 minutes. The Wrap reports that the Stranger Things 4finale takes more than two hours. It’s good to know that you can pause Netflix and go for a pee whenever it suits you.
Duffer explained that Stranger Things 4 is a change because there’s so much to do like the characters progress towards the fifth and final seasons.
The writer stated that “We’ve talked about it being a very revelatory year, in that there are a lot of things that we want the audience to know about and reveal in terms the Upside Down” and what is actually happening here in Hawkins.
