Creator/producers The Duffer brothers told the mag they didn’t consider making the series an anthology.
“I don’t think we ever thought anthology,” Ross Duffer told the mag. “I think we talked like a larger time jump where the kids are older now and it’s a different decade. That’s something we batted around from the very beginning. But for us, there’s still more story here [in the 1980s], there’s still things that are unresolved.”
The mag reported fans can “expect” to see Mike (Finn Wolfhard), Joyce (Winona Ryder) and more back, but as for whether or not – SPOILER ALERT — Eleven (Millie Brown) will return, that remains to be seen.
“We don’t know about Eleven,” Ross said. “We leave that up in the air.”
