The hunt is on in Hawkins! Netflix has hired Prey director Dan Trachtenberg to direct one of the episodes of Stranger Things season 5.
The fifth season of Stranger Things does not yet have a release date, with the Netflix series likely not returning until next year at the earliest due to the WGA strike. The newest revelation is that Prey and 10 Cloverfield Lane director Dan Trachtenberg is set to direct one of the episodes in season 5.
Dan Trachtenberg definitely has the pedigree to tackle one of the final episodes of Netflix’s biggest hit Stranger Things. Not only do Prey and 10 Cloverfield Lane prove that he has the chops to handle monster-based horror, but he has also previously worked with Netflix on Black Mirror: Playtest. While it’s impossible to know what type of story he’ll helm in the show’s final season, fans can rest assured that it’ll be one of the show’s best.
