Netflix has set a January 12th premiere date for the previously unannounced documentary “One Last Adventure: The Making of Stranger Things 5”.
Martina Radwan (“Tomorrow, Tomorrow, Tomorrow”) helms the feature-length doc, which offers an “inside look at the years of effort and craft that went into the final instalment of the Duffer Brothers‘ generation-defining series.”
The trailer shows scenes from the final table read with numerous actors in tears. There’s plenty of video of the younger cast, the writers’ room, and creators Matt and Ross Duffer as they call a wrap on the series.
In a statement, the Duffer brothers say:
“Growing up in Durham, North Carolina, we dreamed of becoming filmmakers – but Hollywood felt impossibly far away. Everything changed when we watched the behind-the-scenes documentaries for ‘The Lord of the Rings’ – on-the-ground films that showed the real nuts and bolts of how a massive production actually gets made. We saw how stressed Peter Jackson was and thought: yep, that’s the dream.
With the decline of physical media, that kind of behind-the-scenes storytelling has largely disappeared. We wanted to bring it back. ‘One Last Adventure: The Making of Stranger Things Season 5’ – beautifully captured and directed by Martina Radwan – is our attempt to do just that. If you love ‘Stranger Things,’ or if you’re simply curious how a major Hollywood production comes to life, this one’s for you.”
Angus Wall, Terry Leonard and Kent Kubena produced “ne Last Adventure: The Making of Stranger Things 5” which premieres on the service next Monday.
