Without a doubt, this new season of the successful Netflix series Stranger Things has become one of the most watched television events so far this year and this is no coincidence, since unlike its two recent installments, the latter has garnered exclusively positive reviews and opinions, praising its darker tone, more mature characters, and both new and old additions as well as a very, very scary villain.
5 doubts that the first part leaves us
A peculiarity that this fourth season has is that Netflix has decided to divide it into two volumes , with the first of them already released on May 27, 2022 and the second with a scheduled date for July 1 of this same year, as if it were a great film premiere in the style of Harry Potter or The Avengers . It is precisely due to this division that some unknowns have remained in the air without answering. Next, we proceed to list some of the ones that most concern us.
Before we start, be careful, we are going to reveal some spoilers , so if you are not up to date with the series, turn around and come back when you finish this batch of chapters.
Will has a crush on Mike?
Since the third season, fans have been theorizing about whether Will, that boy who was kidnapped by the Demogorgon in the first season of the series, has been in love with his friend Mike for years, but because he is in a love relationship with Eleven he seems determined to keep it a secret. Volume 2 may finally give us the answer to this question.
How were the Russians able to capture a Demogorgon?
If we remember the first season, the Demogorgon was a fearsome beast that ripped apart soldiers with amazing ease. That is why it is surprising that the Russians have been able to catch one and, to some extent, tame it. It’s possible? From July we will see.
How will Joyce, Hopper and Murray escape from Russia?
At the end of Volume 1 of the fourth season we find our most veteran protagonists reunited at last, although that does not mean that they are safe. For starters, they find themselves trapped in a Russian jail with a Demogorgon on the loose like crew members of the Nostromo from Alien the Eighth Passenger . Also, they are without a plane to return to the United States so things look terribly bad, right?
Has the Nina project helped Eleven get her powers back?
There are numerous doubts as to whether the Nina project has really helped Eleven regain all of her superpowers. Although we are shown that yes, that she has managed to bring back a certain amount of abilities, we still do not believe that the protagonist has returned to be as powerful as she was in previous seasons. Will it be confirmed in the second part of the season?
Will our teens manage to reunite and defeat Vecna?
At the end of this first part of the season we find our group of teenagers divided into two: one in Hawkins and one in California, so it would be very incredible if they both managed to reunite to end Vecna’s reign of terror. This may be the first season of the series so far that we have our heroes facing off against the villain on different sides. Or is that not possible?
