New York, Dec 23, (V7N) - Millie Bobby Brown, 20, shared an emotional farewell message on Instagram as filming for the final season of Stranger Things wrapped. In a video posted on Friday, the actress, who grew up on the show, struggled to hold back tears while reading a goodbye speech on set.

"Isn't graduation supposed to bring relief, like you're glad to leave behind the teachers and classmates? Not me," she said. "I am nowhere near ready to leave you guys." Brown continued, expressing her love for the cast and crew, "I love each and every one of you, and I'll forever carry the memories and bonds we've created together as a family."

Along with the video, Brown posted a series of photos from her years on Stranger Things, starting from the first season in 2016 when she was just 12 years old.

As filming for the show’s final season officially concluded, Netflix confirmed the news on its social media, stating: "THAT'S A WRAP ON STRANGER THINGS."

Co-stars also shared their feelings as the show comes to an end. Finn Wolfhard, who plays Mike Wheeler, posted a nostalgic photo of the cast when they were younger, saying he was "still in shock" that the series is ending. "I’ll miss all of my friends and our characters terribly," he wrote. "I feel like we’re still those people and I’m lucky to still stand beside them today."

Noah Schnapp, who plays Will Byers, expressed his emotions, saying, "I can't help but be forever grateful for the incredible people that I've met and the lessons I've learned through this decade journey."

David Harbour, who plays Jim Hopper, teased earlier this year that the series finale will be the best episode of the entire show. He recalled how the cast got emotional reading the script, especially as they realized how much time had passed since they first began the show. "It was their childhood," Harbour said, referring to the young cast. "They started the show when they were 11 and 12, and here we are reading, and it's nine, 10 years later."

While Netflix hasn't confirmed a premiere date, Stranger Things Season 5 is expected to debut in 2025.
