STRANGER Things star Sadie Sink has issued a bleak warning about the upcoming “dark and intense” new series.
After some worrying snaps were teased to fans – showing Eleven, played by Millie Bobby Brown, in distress – the young actress has hinted things could get worse for the character.
Sadie, 19, who plays Max Mayfield in the hit Netflix drama since debuting in season two, has told of what fans can expect of the fourth season.
With filming underway on the new episodes, expected to hit screens next year, Sadie said there will be a change of mood from the opening episode.
“It’s definitely a really, really dark season,” she revealed to PA. “Each season the production scale gets bigger and bigger and the stakes are really high.”
She teased further that there “is something” special about the upcoming series, which she described as “really intense”.
Earlier this month, behind-the-scenes snaps suggested that Eleven could be in trouble this season as a stunt-double dummy was seen being wheeled off.
Pictures from the set show a mannequin in place of the fan favourite, lying on a stretcher and looking worse for wear.
Paramedics wheeled her out of an undisclosed building with an oxygen mask over her face as she appeared to be fighting for life.
It suggests that Millie Bobby Brown‘s alter-ego may be involved in a dangerous situation which may have occurred in another scene of filming.
Last week Stranger Things has announced a whole host of new faces that will be joining the iconic cast favourites in the upcoming fourth season.
Including some already-familiar faces, the cast line-up includes a cheerleader, basketball star, guidance counsellor and “band nerd”.
All set to arrive in Hawkins in season four, fans were thrilled by the announcement that read: “New cast members incoming. Roll call.”
Amybeth McNulty, who starred in series Anne with an E, will play newbie Vickie, who is described as a “cool, fast talking band nerd who catches the eye of one of our beloved heroes”.
Meanwhile, Regina Ting Chen, who previously starred in Queen of the South, will act alongside Amybeth as Ms Kelly.
A third female star to join the cast, Grace Van Dien, best known for her performance in The Village, will play popular girl Chrissy.
Lastly, a new male star is set to join the line-up in the form of Queen Sugar’s Myles Truitt – who is listed in the line-up as Patrick.
The basketball star has “friends, talent and a good life” until things are sent “spiralling out of control” by an unknown “shocking event”.
