The second season of Netflix’s supernatural drama Stranger Things is one of 2017’s most anticipated shows. The show’s young cast were recently interviewed by People, and they spoke about what fans can expect from Season 2.
In terms of the show’s tone, Finn Wolfhard, who plays Mike, confirmed that it will much scarier than Season 1. "I think this season will be a lot [darker]. A lot more horror oriented,” he said. "I think people are going to like it more than the first season."
Wolfhard comments are similar to those made last year by creators Matt and Ross Duffer, who stated that it would be "darker and weirder" than the first season.
Elsewhere in the interview, Gaten Matarazzo, who plays Dustin, explained that Season 2 would put extra focus on the supporting cast. "The great thing about this season is you get to see insights into each character on their own," he said. "You’re going to see a lot more into the lives of how the characters are coping with what’s been going on. They’re all very emotionally scarred. They feel alone because their best friend is back and he’s not acting like their best friend anymore. He’s changed."
Last month, David Harbour, who plays cop Jim Hopper, revealed that he had seen the finished first episode of the new season. "I’ve seen Episode 1 and have seen a lot of the shooting at the monitor and I can honestly say that I am so excited for you all to see this season," he said. "It’s so fun and dark and complex. The characters all get to deepen and develop and we get to take on even greater demons (inner and outer). The story moves so fast in the middle and the tension is so high."
A first teaser was screened during the Super Bowl in January–check it out here. Stranger Things Season 2 hits Netflix in October.
