David Harbour<\/a> has admitted that a part of him is happy that Stranger Things<\/a> is coming to an end.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The Emmy nominee has played chief of police Jim Hopper in all four seasons of the hit Netflix<\/a> sci-fi series, and will make one final outing in the role later this year<\/a> for its fifth and final run.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

As part of a conversation with Scarlett Johansson<\/a> for Interview magazine<\/a>, David was asked whether it was \u201ca relief\u201d that the last season of Stranger Things is almost here at last.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cWhen I started I loved it so much,\u201d he responded. \u201cBuddies of mine who\u2019d done TV shows for many years said, \u2018By season three or four you\u2019ll be running\u2019. And I was like, \u2018Never! I love all these guys so much\u2019. And then you get to a certain point where you\u2019re like, \u2018How much more story is there?\u2019.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cYou\u2019re having to play a lot of the same beat, and there\u2019s a feeling where you\u2019re like, \u2018I want to take a risk. I want to do something that people haven\u2019t seen me do before\u2019. So yeah, after 10 years, it\u2019s like, \u2018Okay\u2019.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Scarlett then said she felt similarly about her decade-long stint as a key figure in the Marvel Cinematic Universe<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The Black Widow star recalled: \u201cSome of the films that I did for Marvel engaged my character more than others. [In some] films, the cast was so enormous and there was so much plot to serve that you start to feel like you\u2019re a device to move it along.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cAnd if you\u2019re committed to five and a half months of that, it\u2019s like, \u2018Okay. I can\u2019t paint my nails, I can\u2019t get a haircut\u2019. These sound like silly problems, but your identity is wrapped up in this job for a long time, and if you\u2019re not doing engaging work as an actor, you feel a little cagey sometimes.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cIt\u2019s the same thing with this show,\u201d David agreed. \u201cThere\u2019d be certain seasons where you feel like, \u2018I\u2019m going to go in this different direction\u2019. <\/span>But as you say, a piece of your psyche is occupied with this group of people and this storyline.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The final season of Stranger Things has been hit by several roadblocks<\/a> (most notably the Hollywood strikes of 2023), which means it\u2019s now been three years since fans\u2019 last trip to Hawkins, Indiana.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

However, Netflix finally confirmed last week<\/a> that the first \u201cvolume\u201d of Stranger Things\u2019 final season will debut at the end of November, with two more drops following on Christmas Day and New Year\u2019s Day.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

David previously said<\/a> the script for season five was \u201cterrific\u201d, insisting that creators The Duffer Brothers \u201c<\/span>continue to outdo themselves\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
