Season 3 of Stranger Things will be out in 2019 but as early as now, actor David Harbour gives us a hint on what’s going to happen to our favourite sci-fi web series.
Harbour, who plays Chief Jim Hopper, told Variety the upcoming season will be inspired by the 1985 action-comedy film Fletch.
“The Duffers are so specific each year with the movies. And Fletch is one movie we get to play around and have some fun with this season, which you wouldn’t expect from Stranger Things, and you wouldn’t expect from the Spielberg universe, and you certainly wouldn’t expect from a darker season,” he told the outlet.
Fletch revolves around LA Times reporter Irwin M. “Fletch” Fletcher (played b Chevy Chase), who is offered a huge amount of money to assassinate a millionaire with a terminal cancer prognosis but later discovers his target is not ill at all.
A character likely to channel the character of Fletch is Jake Busey’s Bruce, a “journalist for The Hawkins Post, with questionable morals and a sick sense of humor,” according to description released by Netflix.
However, the latest season will not be all fun for the residents of Hawkins, particularly to Hopper who takes on the role of legitimate adoptive father to Eleven (played by Millie Bobby Brown).
““Their relationship is going to get far more complex, because, you know, things happen to girls and boys when they’re 13 and 14,” he explained. “A lot of changes go on in the body and in your social life, and I don’t think he’s going to handle watching her become a woman in front of his eyes very well. That’s a horrifying thing for him — maybe even more so than fighting inter-dimensional monsters.”
