In fact, when asked if the final season of the Duffer Brothers franchise—which started filming in January—had finished shooting during a March 9 appearance on "The Jonathan Ross Show," Millie responded, "No, we have nine months left."
And though nine months may not seem very long, the "Damsel" actress' answer doesn't actually mean the show will premiere on the streaming platform in that amount of time. In fact, fans will likely have to wait at least another six months for post-production to finish, pushing the release date to sometime in mid-2025 at the earliest.

And while that really, really far away premiere date might not be thrilling to hear—especially given the fourth season premiered all the way back in 2022—the 20-year-old, who plays Eleven in the series, shared other details from the forthcoming installment that will get viewers pumped. After all, Brown revealed there will be eight episodes in the finale and noted that she already knows "what happens to my character."
"I haven't read the [last] script because they're still in the process of writing them," she added. "I think I've only read up to episode six."
But as for any other "Stranger Things" spoilers? Well, fans will have to look elsewhere.

"I really like Netflix," Brown explained, "and I'd like to be employed by them for a very long time."
The Florence by Mills founder added, "I signed a piece of paper that says I'm not going to say anything, and I think I owe it to them to keep my mouth shut."
