David Harbour, known for his role as Jim Hopper in Stranger Things, expresses relief about the show coming to an end after almost 10 years.
In a recent interview with Scarlett Johansson for Interview Magazine, Harbour reflects on his time on the show and the desire to explore new roles.
Harbour mentions feeling the need to take a risk and try something different after playing the same character for a long time.
He acknowledges the possibility of the story running its course and the challenge of portraying similar character beats repeatedly.
While some feel his character arc could have ended in Season 3, the show continued his storyline by bringing Hopper back as a Russian prisoner in Season 4.
Speculation arises about the fate of Jim Hopper in the upcoming seasons, considering the fakeout death and potential developments in the final season.
There are questions about whether Jim Hopper may meet his demise in Season 5 or if he will have a happy ending with Joyce Byers.
The release date for the fifth season of Stranger Things is set for Nov. 26 on Netflix.
