Following the deadly ending to Stranger Things 5 Volume 1, viewers are on the edge of their seats waiting to see what happens next. On December 15, a new trailer for the upcoming Stranger Things 5: Volume 2 was shared online by Netflix, giving a glimpse of the story for the upcoming Christmas season release.
New trailer out for Stranger Things 5: Volume 2
The video begins with Will Byers shouting into the void, “We failed,” says Noah Schnapp. It was seen earlier that his magical powers were surprising to the audience. His mother, Joyce, expressed that the fight for the herd was far from over. Next, Dustin (Gaten Matarazzo) says, “This whole time, everything we’ve thought about the Upside Down has been dead wrong.” His statement raises serious curiosity for fans of the show who can expect more surprises in the coming days.
Diana Ross’s The Upside Down plays at the same time as Millie Bobby Brown’s Eleven appears on screen with her headphone set and her signature bandana. She is focused on the mission of taking down Vecna, and is seeking help from her sister Kali (Linnea Barthelsen). Max (Sadie Sink) and Holly (Nell Fisher) can be seen together, providing a moment of solace for the audience.
Additionally, Lucas, Mike, Murray, Nancy, Jonathan, Dustin, Steve, Robin, and Erica are seen moving forward, killing the soldiers in their path.
Vecna heads on a path of destruction and declares, “It’s time. For a new world.” Although these words may excite you, the words that follow may be just as hurtful. Steve and Dustin repeat a dialogue from Stranger Things season 3, bringing back the feeling of doom. “You die, I die.” It is clear that their devoted friendship has created a fear in the minds of their fans.
