'Stranger Things' Star Wants Bloodbath Ending

"Strangers Things" would end in a complete bloodbath if star Gaten Matarazzo was in charge.

The fifth and final season of the hit Netflix series is currently filming, and the expectation is that it will probably arrive at some point in 2025.

New episodes arriving before early 2025 would be a gift, and it wouldn't be surprising at all if Netflix made viewers wait until this summer.

Ideal? Not at all, but it's simply the reality of the situation. The massive break between seasons four and five has also resulted in plenty of time for different theories to surface.

While Matarazzo might not have a specific theory, he does know what he wants:

Lots of death.

Gaten Matarazzo wants more death in "Stranger Things."

The young man famous for playing Dustin in the supernatural/paranormal series was at Mega Con Orlando when he'd asked what he would change. He'd like to see more bodies hit the ground!

"It might sound messed up but we should kill more people. This show would be so much better if the stakes were much higher, like at any moment any of these kids can kick it. I feel like we’re all too safe," the rising star explained.

Will Matarazzo's wish come true?

The good news for Gaten Matarazzo is that there's a chance there will be plenty of bodies that hit the ground by the time the credits roll for the final time.

The end of season four set the stage for an epic battle and conclusion to the series from the Duffer brothers. It seems highly unlikely all the main characters make it out alive.

There needs to be some crushing losses in order for the stakes to feel real. Nobody should be safe, and I'm ultimately guessing that's what will happen.

If you're not already a "Stranger Things" fan, then right now would be a great time to start watching. There is plenty of time to crush the four seasons that are out before gearing up for the fifth and final season. The show is wildly entertaining and has some great nostalgic vibes. I say that as someone who wasn't even alive in the 1980s. It just makes you feel a certain kind of way. Definitely hit me with your theories on how the show will end at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
