Volume 2 of Stranger Things Season 5 Will Focus More on Max and Holly
In a recent conversation with Variety, the Duffer Brothers revealed that they have coined a term for what is to come, and they call it the Russia Storyline. This term refers to how Jim Hopper escaped from Russia, and with Stranger Things Season 5 Volume 2, we will witness Max and Holly trying to escape from Vecna’s mind prison. In their comment, they said-
Yes, that’s what we call our new Russia storyline, because it’s very few characters. They’re kind of isolated off on their own, Max and Holly. We’re very happy with how it integrates with the other storylines.
In the same interview, they also revealed that the cave from which Henry is afraid of is the same one seen in the Broadway play “The Last Shadow,” is, in fact, the same. The Duffer Brothers revealed that they have always tried to find a balance between the play and the show, and create a perfect balance of elements that everyone can understand and enjoy.
The Duffer Brothers also confirmed that you don’t have to watch the play to understand what’s happening in the show, as it would be explained in the show itself. So, let’s wait until December 25, 2025, and till then, stay tuned with us as we bring you everything you need to know about Stranger Things.
