Stranger Things Season 4 new cast list: Who are the actors and where have you seen them before?

The clock is ticking and it's nearly time for Netflix to drop the highly-awaited Season 4 of Stranger Things in a two-part format.

After a three-year-long wait, the 80s-themed, supernatural sci-fi drama will be dropping its Season 4 Vol. 1 this May 27, taking the audience on an adventure more thrilling than ever. It has been revealed on various occasions that the upcoming season will have a plot bigger, creepier, and darker than the previous ones.

Creating a Stephen King-like atmosphere yet again, the show's return also means that fans will likely see all their favorite teen characters back in action after Season 3's rather heartbreaking finale and the departure of the Byers along with Eleven from Hawkins.

Let's explore the new cast list of Stranger Things Season 4 ahead of its premiere on May 27, 2022.
