The countdown to the final season of Stranger Things is officially on. After more than three years, the hit Netflix series returns later this month. However, the excitement for the show’s end has been matched by real-life Stranger Things drama involving its cast.
David Harbour, known for playing Jim Hopper, recently drew attention after turning off comments on his Instagram. This move came shortly after his ex-wife Lily Allen released an album filled with emotional lyrics, which many fans believe reference their marriage. Despite the speculation, Harbour has chosen not to comment publicly.
The Stranger Things drama escalated when reports claimed that Millie Bobby Brown, who plays Eleven, accused Harbour of harassment and bullying. According to insiders, the claims were made before filming began for the new season. Although the details remain unclear, neither Millie nor David has responded to the reports. Netflix has also remained silent.
Adding to the intrigue, an old interview with Millie resurfaced online this week. In the 2024 clip, she spoke about her wedding to Jake Bongiovi, joking about whether the ceremony would have a Stranger Things theme. When asked if David Harbour would officiate her wedding, Millie hesitated before responding uncertainly. She later mentioned that Matthew Modine, who plays Dr. Brenner, would likely officiate instead.
Indeed, Modine ended up leading the ceremony when Millie married Jake in May last year. Co-star Noah Schnapp attended, though it is unclear if other cast members joined the celebration. Fans have now rewatched the clip with fresh eyes, linking it to the ongoing Stranger Things drama.
Past interviews between the pair have also resurfaced. In 2018, Millie described her relationship with Harbour as emotional but close, comparing it to a father-daughter bond. A year later, she praised him for his professionalism and respect toward women. Harbour, for his part, once said he felt protective of Millie during the show’s early seasons.
With Stranger Things nearing its finale, the off-screen tension has added a new layer of intrigue for fans. The Stranger Things drama continues to dominate headlines, even as audiences prepare to say goodbye to one of Netflix’s biggest shows.
As the final chapter approaches, viewers are eager to see how the cast comes together on screen amid the growing attention off it.
