    We still have a long ways to go before we get to lay eyes on the fifth and final season of Netflix’s mega-hit Stranger Things . (It isn’t expected to drop until 2025.) But on Monday, the streamer ensured that our appetites remained whetted for the Duffer Brothers’ 1980s-set sci-fi/horror/comedy/drama by releasing a tantalizing behind-the-scenes video that gave a glimpse of a change that was overdue to the nth.

    Yep, another peek at the new ’do that will at last rescue Noah Schnapp’s Will Byers from the atrocious bowl cut that he’s worn since the series premiere. (Our first look came on March 22 — Will’s birthday — when the show’s X account revealed his glow-up.)

    Also on Monday, Netflix disclosed the addition of three more actors to Season 5’s cast. From left below, they are Nell Fisher ( My Life Is Murder ), newbie Jake Connelly and Alex Breaux ( Joe Pickett ). No details about any of their characters were divulged.

    Previously, we’d learned that Terminator badass Linda Hamilton had been tapped to play — but of course a hush-hush role and that Eduardo Franco had smoked his last doobie as scene-stealing Argyle.

    The official logline describes the show thusly: “A love letter to the ’80s classic genre films that captivated a generation, Stranger Things is a thrilling drama set in the seemingly normal Midwestern town of Hawkins, Ind. After a boy vanishes into thin air, his close-knit group of friends and family search for answers and are pulled into a high-stakes and deadly series of events. Beneath the surface of their ordinary town lurks an extraordinary supernatural mystery, along with top-secret government experiments and a dangerous gateway that connects our world to a powerful yet sinister realm. Friendships will be tested and lives will be altered as what they discover will change Hawkins and possibly the world — forever.”
