‘Stranger Things’ plaintiff drops plagiarism lawsuit before trial
A plagarism case against the creators of Netflix hit Stranger Things, Matt and Ross Duffer, has come to an end after plaintiff Charles Kessler withdrew his lawsuit. A trial was scheduled to take place this week, but that'll no longer be going ahead.
Netflix won't premiere 'Stranger Things' season 3 until summer 2019
You'd better soak in that nostalgic Stranger Things season 3 teaser, as that's likely all you're getting for a while. Netflix programming exec Cindy Holland has revealed that the third installment of the Duffer brothers' show is launching sometime in summer 2019. That's a considerably longer wait than the 15 months between the first two seasons -- you're looking at a minimum of 18 months after season 2. There may be a good reason for the lengthier wait, though.
Netflix: 'Stranger Things' directors aren't leaving the show
We haven't heard much about the next season of Stranger Things, but a rumor on Moviefone.com indicated that its directors, Ross and Matt Duffer, will be less involved after season three wraps up. This evening, Netflix tweeted "Rumors that the Duffer Bros are leaving Stranger Things after season 3 are false," which doesn't exactly refute the report, but hopefully means our Eggos and walkie-talkies are safe. The reported cited a source claiming the two would step back to work on two other projects for Netflix, so this could just mean they're more spread around. Still, we'll be watching carefully to make sure the quality holds up.
How Netflix keeps ‘Stranger Things’ lo-fi in a high-tech world
Netflix is still surprised that Stranger Things, a science-fiction series starring five young kids, became a worldwide sensation immediately after it was released. Unlike some of its biggest hits, like House of Cards (which is based on a British series), Stranger Things was an unknown property when it premiered in July of 2016. But it quickly captivated audiences, thanks to its '80s nostalgia and the perfectly executed homages to Hollywood classics from the likes of Stephen King and Steven Spielberg.
