Big announcement for the "Nerds" (Stranger Things fans)! As you await the finale chapter of Netflix, the Duffer brothers recently confirmed that one beloved character won't be able to make it in Season 5.
So, if you've been hoping for Eddie Munson's return in the upcoming chapter of the hit sci-fi series, then it's time to accept that he's really dead and his dead body is still inside the Upside Down. Per Empire, Matt Duffer said:
"I love that Joe Quinn is toying with people! But no, he’s dead."
However, the creator of the series praised Joseph Quinn for teasing fans about Eddie's fate. The character was introduced in Season 4 as the leader of Hawkins High School’s Hellfire Club. Eddie's group was known for gathering and playing Dungeons & Dragons.
His personality is quite intriguing, and his storytelling style makes him the perfect Dungeon Master. Just like the other young men, he is also around 19 or 20 years old during the events of the fourth season. At first, he looked too rebellious. But as you get to know Eddie, he's one of the kindest-hearted seniors at the school.
