The recent announcement confirming "Stranger Things" Season 2 was almost everything that fans have been waiting for since the first season concluded in July. Although Netflix revealed that there will be 9 new episodes and a promise that the series will air in 2017, the Duffer brothers also stated that Eleven's return is not yet certain. Perhaps Matt and Ross Duffer are just sadists who want to torture fans, but it is also possible that Millie Bobby Brown's character will be replaced by a new girl named Max!
The Duffer Brothers Tease Eleven's Return In 'Stranger Things' Season 2 Is "Still Up In The Air"
Fans were delighted when Netflix finally confirmed "Stranger Things" Season 2 with a short teaser that revealed the new episode titles. However, Matt and Ross Duffer also revealed that Millie Bobby Brown's return as Eleven is "still up in the air." Some fans suspected that the Duffer brothers were trolling them, until news about the new characters were unveiled.
According to TVLine, "Stranger Things" Season 2 will introduce three new characters who will be moving into Hawkins and its dark storyline. The report states that one of the primary new characters is a young girl named Max, who prefers a skateboard to a bicycle. The character is described as "tough and confident", and she could be the main reason why the first episode is titled "Madmax".
A new bad-ass female character sounds like an awesome addition to "Stranger Things" Season 2. However, Max also has some fans worried that she might be introduced as a possible replacement for Millie Bobby Brown's Eleven!
Will Millie Bobby Brown's Eleven Be Replaced By Max In 'Stranger Things' Season 2?
