Stranger Things Season 4 Will Be Tough on Mike & Eleven's Relationship
Stranger Things star Finn Wolfhard teases the difficulties that Mike and Eleven will face as they navigate a long-distance relationship in season 4. The upcoming season of the paranormal drama series is supersized and will release in two volumes, with the first half dropping on Netflix on May 27. That is nearly three years after Stranger Things season 3. The most recent trailer teased the Upside Down’s hostile attempt to take over Hawkins, a new threat that will inevitably reunite Mike and Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) at some point in the season.

However, the Stranger Things season 4 trailer also teases that Eleven is the only one who can save her friends from the “eye of the storm.”
