Fans of Netflix’s sci-fi horror phenomenon “Stranger Things” rejoice! To celebrate being halfway through production, a new behind-the-scenes video offers a glimpse into the upcoming fifth and final season and some of the issues production has faced. The new video gives fans familiar faces, including Sadie Sink (Max), who was in a coma, and Millie Bobby Brown, talking about her iconic role of Eleven and how she’s played the character since she was 10. Brown’s statement touches on a common fan concern: the aging cast. With several seasons under their belts, the young actors are no longer teenagers. This shift raises questions about how the show will handle evolving appearances. The fifth season of “Stranger Things” faces the challenge of exceeding expectations set by prior seasons. Introducing new cast members might be a strategic move to address the aging cast and keep the story fresh. Despite potential hurdles, season 5 will likely see success, riding the wave of season 4’s

Netflix is known for many things, one of which is picking up shows that are close to ending, like “Lucifer.” Their latest is the supernatural series “Evil,” whose fourth season is said to be its last. But it is not going down without a fight. The stars are fighting tooth and nail for it to be renewed, and we’re keeping our fingers crossed that they succeed. Debuting on CBS in 2019, the Robert and Michele King series garnered a strong following for four seasons. Plans for a fifth season on Paramount+ were underway, but a cast member’s family loss necessitated a filming delay. Unfortunately, this delay coincided with Hollywood labor disputes. By the time those were resolved, Paramount+ decided to cancel the show, leaving season four as the series finale. But in this writer’s opinion, the series has more stories it could tell. In case you don’t already know, “Evil” centers on a team of investigators for the Catholic church:

Netflix’s mega-hit shark movie Under Paris is in hot water, according to Deadline. French director Vincent Dietschy’s court case over the movie continues after suffering a recent setback. The shark movie, which has had over 85 million viewers since its early June release, ranks as Netflix’s most-watched French feature ever. The problem is that Dietschy has accused the film of being a rip-off of his original concept. Dietschy filed a lawsuit against the film’s producers and agent for plagiarism earlier this year. He alleges they stole his idea without permission or compensation. Dietschy recently sought to have Under Paris removed from Netflix while the case progressed. However, a Paris court recently rejected this request due to a technicality. The lawsuit paperwork named the wrong Netflix entity—the French arm instead of the Netherlands-based international headquarters. While the takedown request was denied, the core lawsuit remains ongoing. The next court hearing is expected in September. Dietschy’s lawyers argue this ruling is problematic.
