Stranger Things “One Last Adventure: The Making of Stranger Things 5″ Documentary Coming From Netflix

Today, Netflix dropped a trailer for their behind-the-scenes documentary of “Stranger Things” called “One Last Adventure: The Making of Stranger Things 5″. It is produced by Angus Wall, Terry Leonard, and Kent Kubena.

Here is the trailer,

It’s bittersweet watching the cast get emotional about the end. One of the comments on YouTube said it best: “10 years of us watching stranger things and for them its their whole childhood”.

That hits because I’m a mom, and my kids grew up on the show. It was a big part of their lives. I know they feel some loss, so I can only imagine how the actors feel.

A statement from the Duffer brothers was released with the trailer.

They talk about what inspired them to create, and it seems they want to do the same for others.

“Growing up in Durham, North Carolina, we dreamed of becoming filmmakers — but Hollywood felt impossibly far away. Everything changed when we watched the behind-the-scenes documentaries for ‘The Lord of the Rings’ — on-the-ground films that showed the real nuts and bolts of how a massive production actually gets made. We saw how stressed Peter Jackson was and thought: yep, that’s the dream. With the decline of physical media, that kind of behind-the-scenes storytelling has largely disappeared. We wanted to bring it back. ‘One Last Adventure: The Making of Stranger Things Season 5’ — beautifully captured and directed by Martina Radwan — is our attempt to do just that. If you love ‘Stranger Things,’ or if you’re simply curious how a major Hollywood production comes to life, this one’s for you.”

Director Martina Radwan also gave this statement,

“I’m endlessly grateful to the Duffer Brothers for trusting me with a front-row seat to this incredible journey. Spending a full year on set with them was a true privilege — and an absolute thrill. Being able to get close and watching them bring this beloved show to life in real time, was pure joy. I only wish I could travel back and document Seasons 1 through 4. From the cast to their long-time collaborators, everyone welcomed me with remarkable generosity, openly sharing their personal and collective experiences from a decade of creative filmmaking, always pushing the boundaries. The Duffers inspire everyone to be better, including myself, their process and the show represents everything I love about filmmaking.”

It would have been fantastic to have had documentaries for the other seasons as well.

End of an Era

I sincerely hope they all stay connected in some way. It feels a lot like when “Harry Potter” ended, but stronger.

Maybe because I felt a closer connection as the mom of a son who is the same age as the younger actors.
