Hmmmmmm… is the now-filming Stranger Things Season 5 set to bring back a very popular – albeit dead – fan favourite?
Speaking at CinemaCon actor Joeseph Quinn, who played Eddie Munson in season 4 of the hit series was asked if he would be returning for season 5 and his answer was ambiguously positive.
Now, just so we’re caught up, Munson in the series was a metaller who the town believed was a satan worshipper and up to no good, this wasn’t helped when he became wrapped up in murders in the town carried out by the villainous Vecna; in the final battle Eddie diees fighting Vecna’s minions to save the town who believe, even in death, that he was a murderer.
It’s a tragic end for a very fun character and Quinn bestowed Eddie with all the essential qualities for a loser you could root for, especially when the odds were stacked in his favour.
Anyway, in the video below, you can see a fan ask him if he’s returning for the fifth season and the actor seems very hesitant to reply before saying: “I do know, but I’m not telling you.”
This is a curious answer because it can really only mean that he is coming back otherwise, you’d have to imagine he’d have simply said ‘no’.
What do you think? Will we see Eddie again? Flashback, perhaps? Or something more fantastical? Let me know your thoughts, Nerds and Nerdettes.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
