Development

The Duffers stated they wanted to start the third season with a clean slate, intentionally ending the previous season with few cliffhangers, so that they can focus on creating a better story with more freedom.[11] They also hinted that several ideas that didn't make it in the second season may be used.[4] By mid-November, the season was in the early stages of development.[12] In January, producer Shawn Levy revealed that all of the characters' story lines have already been planned out, and that the season will have eight or nine episodes, depending on the "amount of story that excites them." He also confirmed that Will Byers will not be the main victim this season, and that the friendship between Dustin Henderson and Steve Harrington will continue.[6] In February, it was announced the season will have eight episodes.[1]

In March, Levy also revealed that Season 3 would take place during the summer of 1985, a year after the former season and added that the relationship between Mike and Eleven as well as Max and Lucas will continue. Moreover, he promised that Steve Harrington will have a much larger role.[5]

In an interview, Noah Schnapp told that the third season will be very unique as it will be combining both the darker and lighter elements of the previous two seasons. Additionally, he confirmed that Erica will have her own story-line with "someone from the cast".[13] At Stranger Con, he also hinted the possibility of seeing more D&D scenes this season.[14]

In July, Levy gave more information on the season's tone, saying it is going to "darker" places while also mentioning it has "heart and humor." David Harbour mentioned that the season will be taking more risks[15] and hinted at the inspiration from several films released during 1985.[16] Harbour later revealed that one such film is the 1985 comedy film Fletch.[17] In addition, he described his character, Hopper, as being almost a combination of the previous versions of the character from the two prior seasons.[16]

In late July, Levy stated the season will be the "most ambitious" season yet, with inspirations being John Carpenter and other '80s horror directors.[18] Later, he also clarified his previous statement regarding the season's tone, saying that there will still be "plenty of summer fun."[19] According to Finn Wolfhard and Millie Bobby Brown, the season will be the "Summer of Love".[20][21]

In September, Sadie Sink hinted that Starcourt Mall, the new location previously teased will play a big role in the season.[22]

As stated by Dacre Montgomery, Billy Hargrove's storyline will be a huge part of the season.[23]

In late January, Natalia Dyer mentioned that she didn't see any scenes from the third season yet, but teased that it will be "bigger, darker and scarier" than the first two seasons.[24]

In late May, the Duffer brothers revealed in an interview with "Entertainment Weekly" that the Mind Flayer was still alive in the Upside Down and would find another way into Hawkins. They also teased that the season will explore the theme of change among the kids who are experiencing their transition period.[25]

In mid-June, speaking to Empire, Noah Schnapp revealed that the Mind Flayer will still have a presence on Will in the season. Finn Wolfhard also reiterated that the season will combine the fun aspects of Season 1 and the horror aspects of Season 2.[26]

Influences

Borrowing inspirations from the movies of David Cronenberg, John Carpenter and George Romero, the Duffer Brothers sought out to create a darker premise for the third season. They also wanted to pay homage to many classic pop cultural films of the mid 80's. Speaking to "Entertainment Weekly", they revealed the names of some such films, which include Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Romancing the Stone, Midnight Run, Indiana Jones and Jurassic Park.[27]

While discussing inspirations for season three with the cast and crew, Bodysnatchers came up the most with Philip Kaufman's Invasion of the Bodysnatchers being one of them. According to actor Charlie Heaton, E.T. and The Goonies didn’t so much inspire this season as much as scarier films like Sam Raimi's Evil Dead.[28]

Casting

On March 2, Variety announced that Priah Ferguson, who portrays Erica Sinclair, had been upped to a recurring role. Her storyline for the season was described as "No longer content with sitting on the sidelines, Erica finds herself on a wild mission to save Hawkins from a dangerous new threat." They also revealed that Maya Hawke will be joining the cast as Robin, an "'alternative girl' bored with her mundane day job. She seeks excitement in her life and gets more than she bargained for when she uncovers a dark secret in Hawkins, Ind."[7]

In April, it was announced that Cary Elwes, best known for his performance as Westley from The Princess Bride, had been cast as Mayor Kline, who is described as “handsome, slick, and sleazy. He is your classic ’80s politician — more concerned with his own image than with the people of the small town he governs.” Additionally, Jake Busey was revealed to have been cast as Bruce, a journalist for The Hawkins Post “with questionable morals and a sick sense of humor.”[8]

In May, it was revealed that actress Francesca Reale had been cast as Heather, a lifeguard at the Hawkins community pool who will "become the centerpiece of a dark mystery."[9]

In late September, casting director Carmen Cuba revealed that she and the Duffers were still searching for new additions to the cast. Cuba stated they had a challenging storyline that requires them to continue searching for new talent.[29]
