Ah, good old internet rumors strike again.
We’re not bothering to look into who initially started them, but rumors began circulating earlier today that Matt and Ross Duffer, the creative forces behind “Stranger Things,“ would be decreasing their role in the Netflix series after Season 3. The rumors suggested that the Duffers would be stepping down as showrunners.
That’d suck. But it’s not true.
Clearing up the rumors, Netflix tweeted tonight, “Don’t drop your Eggos. Rumors that the Duffer Bros are leaving Stranger Things after season 3 are false.”
Season 3 will likely arrive in late 2018/early 2019, as filming is yet to begin.
