We’re all getting older yet Stranger Things Season 5 is still on the horizon. You might have lost track of just how old everyone was when we last saw them, so we’ve done the hard work for you.
Halfway into 2025 and we still don’t have a set release date for the final installment of Stranger Things. To put that into perspective, we’ll have had four seasons of The Bear since we last stepped foot in Hawkins.
In that time, our stars have changed beyond our wildest beliefs. Millie Bobby Brown is now happily married, our older cohort are entering their thirties, and our youngest have started to graduate from high school.
But how old were they all in Season 4, and how could their real ages affect how they appear in Stranger Things Season 5? (Hint: they might be using de-ageing technology).
