Stranger Things Stars Reunite for Emotional Final Season Premiere

As the cast of Stranger Things gathered for the world premiere of the show's fifth and final season on November 6, 2025, two of the series' lead actors, Millie Bobby Brown and David Harbour, took center stage with a heartfelt display of their on-screen bond.

Brown, who has played the telepathic protagonist Eleven since the show's debut in 2016, when she was just 10 years old, reflected on the past decade of her life that has been intertwined with the hit Netflix series. "I've been living every day like it's the first day on set," she said, "and maybe that's what's made me hold onto every moment for dear life."

Harbour, who portrays Eleven's on-screen father, Jim Hopper, echoed Brown's sentiments, praising the young cast members and their ability to navigate the challenges of fame. "They're all pretty good kids," he said, adding that he has felt a paternal instinct towards his co-stars as they've grown up in the spotlight.

The united front between Brown and Harbour comes after recent rumors of behind-the-scenes tensions, which the actors appeared to shut down with their affectionate interactions on the red carpet. In a video shared by Netflix and Stranger Things' social media accounts, the two stars were seen hugging and joking around as they posed for photographs and interacted with fans.

As the Stranger Things saga nears its conclusion, the cast's emotional reunion serves as a poignant reminder of the profound impact the show has had on their lives and the lives of its devoted fans over the past decade.
