Speaking to Deadline in a recent interview, showrunner Matt Duffer explained what can we expect in the fourth season, “We kind of jokingly call it our Game of Thrones season because it’s so spread out, so I think that’s what’s unique or most unique about the season.”
“Joyce and Byers family to have left at the end of Season 3, They are in California – we’ve always wanted to have that like ‘E.T’.-esque suburb aesthetic, which we finally got to do this year in the desert; and then we have Hopper in Russia; and then, of course, we have a group remaining in Hawkins. So we have these three storylines, are all connected and kind of interwoven together, but it’s just very different tones.”
Stranger Things has had an exciting run so far, however comparing it with Game of Thrones might seem like a bit of a stretch. Also, it remains to be seen which season of Game of Thrones will season 4 of the Netflix sci-fi series will turn out to be, because we know how controversial the entire run of George R. R. Martin’s TV adaptation really was.
