Shawn Levy Explains Why Stranger Things Has to End After Season 5

After what seems like an eternal wait, Stranger Things Season 4 is just a couple of months away, but its arrival comes with the bittersweet understanding that the end is nigh for the hugely successful fantasy horror series, which will end after a fifth and final season. Director and executive producer Shawn Levy spoke to Screen Rant on several subjects, and of course, the upcoming Stranger Things season and the series' impending finale was a big talking point. While fans may be sad to see the show end, Levy was clear that the series has always had a clear arc, and he does not want to see it burn out by trying to go beyond that.
