As a die-hard fan of gripping narratives and heartwarming storytelling, I can’t help but feel a surge of excitement at the return of Frank Darabont to the director’s chair! After a decade-long hiatus, his love for “Stranger Things” has drawn him back into the world of filmmaking. It’s like revisiting an old friend who’s finally come home after a long journey.
Frank Darabont, the director behind “The Shawshank Redemption”, came out of a 11-year hiatus in filmmaking when he was offered the chance to direct two episodes for “Stranger Things 5”. He shared with The Daily Beast that what drew him back was the heartfelt nature of the Netflix hit series, which made him feel it was the right moment to return to directing.
Darabont expressed that it was the deep affection he and his wife have for “Stranger Things” that enticed him out of retirement. He explained that while much of today’s content features morally questionable individuals acting in self-serving ways, “Stranger Things” stands out with its abundance of warmth and kindness – a quality that resonated strongly with him.
Darabont’s last known directing work was on episodes of the now-canceled TNT series “Mob City,” which aired in 2013. Since then, he hasn’t taken up any directorial roles for movies, with his latest being the Stephen King horror adaptation “The Mist” back in 2007. Among his notable directorial projects are “The Green Mile” and “The Walking Dead.
When asked about potentially directing “Stranger Things 5” leading to more projects in the future, Darabond replied: “Perhaps, I haven’t longed for the business yet, but I have yearned to work on a film set with creative minds… It might be a single occasion, but there’s still room for possibilities.
The upcoming fifth season of “Stranger Things,” currently being filmed in Atlanta, is anticipated to premiere on Netflix in 2025. Marking the end of the series, this final season promises to surpass the grandeur of the already expansive Season 4, which featured two full-length episodes totaling approximately 90 minutes each. In an interview with Total Film magazine last year, executive producer and director Shawn Levy hinted at these ambitious plans.
Levy stated that it’s impossible to connect with Season 4 without significantly increasing both scope and depth. He described it as epic, cinematic storytelling presented in a television format. Essentially, ‘Stranger Things 5’ is on par with some of the largest movies we see at the box office.
David Harbour, who has portrayed Hopper since the initial episode, shared on the “Happy Sad Confused” podcast at approximately the same period that he is aware of how the show’s creators, Matt and Ross Duffer, plan to conclude the series.
Harbour commented, ‘I can see the final result, and it’s incredibly touching.’ The phrase I’ll employ is… It’s a monumental task, no doubt. I’m referring to the massive sets and scenes from the script that surpass anything we’ve tackled before.
“Stranger Things 5” remains in production.
