Stranger Things co-creator Ross Duffer is finally setting the record straight about the season five runtimes.
After rumors swirled that every episode in the fifth and final season of the hit Netflix series would run over 90 minutes long (as Duffer previously compared the new episodes to “eight blockbuster movies”), he has now revealed the actual run times for the first four episodes.
In a video shared on his Instagram, he showed the season five premiere episode, titled “The Crawl,” will run for one hour and eight minutes; episode 2, titled “The Vanishing of _____,” will run 54 minutes; episode 3, titled “The Turnbow Trap,” will run one hour and six minutes; and episode 4, titled “Sorcerer,” will run one hour and 23 minutes.
As for the final four episodes, fans will just have to wait and see.
In August, Duffer teased the highly anticipated episodes on social media, calling “The Crawl” his “favorite” and “most eventful first episode since Season 1.” As for episode two, he said it’s “the craziest cold open we’ve ever done. One of the sequences we’re most proud of this season.” The co-creator described “The Turnbow Trap” as “the most classic Stranger Things-y episode of the season,” as well as noted that Frank Darabont came out of retirement to direct the episode. And for episode four, he said it’s “MASSIVE — as big as any finale we’ve ever done, and the most logistically insane shoot of our lives.”
The new season of Stranger Things is set to be released in three parts: Volume 1 on Nov. 26 (consisting of four episodes), Volume 2 on Christmas (three episodes) and The Finale on New Year’s Eve. The show stars Millie Bobby Brown, Finn Wolfhard, Noah Schnapp, Gaten Matarazzo, Caleb McLaughlin, Priah Ferguson, Natalia Dyer, Charlie Heaton, Maya Hawke, Joe Keery, David Harbour, Winona Ryder and Brett Gelman.
