\n Another 1980s icon is joining the cast of Stranger Things<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\n Linda Hamilton will be part of the Netflix hit\u2019s final season, the streamer announced Saturday at its Tudum fan event. Details on the Terminator<\/em> star\u2019s role are being kept quiet for now. <\/p>\n

\n Hamilton app<\/a>eared via video message the event and was introduced by her Terminator<\/em> co-star, Arnold Schwarzenegger, who was in Sao Paulo, Brazil, to announce the renewal of his series<\/a> FUBAR<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\n Netflix announced in February 2022 that Stranger Things<\/em> would end with its fifth season. Season four, which premiered in May 2022, became Netflix\u2019s biggest season of an English-language series to date, racking up 1.35 billion hours of viewing over its first 28 days and spending 19 weeks in the streamer\u2019s top 10 rankings.<\/p>\n

\n Stranger Things<\/em> has referenced The Terminator<\/em> \u2014 though not Hamilton\u2019s role specifically \u2014\u00a0in its stew of 1980s pop-culture callbacks. The Soviet assassin Grigori (Andrey Ivchenko) in season three was styled to look like Arnold Schwarzenegger\u2019s killer cyborg from the film, and Cary Elwes\u2019 character even refers to Grigori as \u201cArnold Schwarzenegger\u201d at one point.<\/p>\n

\n Hamilton joins fellow 1980s breakouts Winona Ryder, Cary Elwes, Matthew Modine, Sean Astin, Paul Reiser and Robert Englund in signing on to Stranger Things<\/em>. Season five is likely at least a year from arriving on Netflix \u2014 and possibly longer than that, depending on how much progress creators Matt and Ross Duffer and their fellow writers had made on scripts before the Writers Guild of America went on strike in May.<\/p>\n

\n At a November 2022 event, Ross Duffer described the final season as \u201ca culmination of all of the seasons, so it\u2019s sort of got a little bit from each, whereas before each season was distinct \u2014 three, this is our big summer blockbuster season with our big monster; four was the psychological horror. I think that what we\u2019re trying to do is go back to the beginning a little bit in the tone of [season] one, but scale-wise it\u2019s more in line with what [season] four is. Hopefully it\u2019s got a little bit of everything.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n Hamilton recurs on Syfy\u2019s Resident Alien<\/em>. Other recent credits include TNT\u2019s Claws<\/em> and 2019\u2019s Terminator: Dark Fate<\/em>, where she reprised her role as Sarah Connor. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
