Stranger Things executive producer Shawn Levy tells Glamour Magazine that The show is scheduled to return for a third season sometime in late 2018 or early 2019. He goes on to tease that Noah Schnapp's character Will Byers, who has been put through the wringer for two seasons, will get a see a bit of a break this time around.

"We're going to give Will a break. We’re not going to put Will through hell for a third season in a row. He’ll be dealing with stuff, but he won’t be at rock bottom the way we forced the amazing Noah Schnapp to play."

He went on to say that the entire storyline for the third season has now been planned including what will happen with each character. Steve and Dustin's new brotherly relationship is set to be explored, but when pressed about whether Dustin or Hopper were expected to suffer any consequences from their actions in the tunnels from season two, Levy responded cryptically, "You might assume that, but you would probably end up being wrong..."

Stranger Things is an American science fiction-horror web television series created, written, directed and co-executive produced by The Duffer Brothers, as well as co-executive produced by Shawn Levy and Dan Cohen. Set in the 1980s, the first season focuses on the investigation into the disappearance of a young boy (Will Byers) amid seemingly supernatural events occurring around the town including the appearance of a girl with psychokinetic abilities who helps the missing boy's friends in their own search. The second season, titled Stranger Things 2, is set a year after the first, and deals with attempts of the characters to return to normal and consequences that linger from the first season. Stranger Things and Stranger Things 2 are currently streaming on Netflix.
