As BroadwayWorld reported in December, there are rumors circulating about a potential Broadway transfer for Stranger Things: The First Shadow, the stage show based on the popular Netflix series.
Louis McCartney, the actor who plays Henry Creel in the stage production, recently talked with Deadline about the possiblity of the show coming to Broadway in 2025. He even mentioned that he would love to play the role in New York.
"Broadway is an exciting conversation," he said. “Obviously everybody’s talking about it, and I’d be more than chuffed to do it. But the thing is, the future holds a million possibilities. And there’s some that I can’t decide on. There’s things that the third party will decide. And I’m just kind of open to everything."
No further details have been released about the rumored trilogy that BroadwayWorld also reported on in December. The rumor is that a part two of Stranger Things will hit the stage in 2026 with a part three set for 2028, but Deadline reports that this is not set in stone at this time.
