"While the main series might be over, Netflix is far from done with Stranger Things. The first spin-off to hit the streaming service will be Stranger Things: Tales From '85. The company had said that the animated show would arrive sometime this year and now, alongside a new trailer, it confirmed a release date of April 23. The trailer is a bit of an odd watch given that Stranger Things wrapped up only a month ago."
"Going from that to this animated style with a whole new voice cast is jarring, but a fun gag at the end of the clip taps into certain misconceptions the audience might have. Stranger Things: Tales From '85 is set during the winter between seasons 2 and 3 of the original show. After Eleven closes the gate to the Upside Down, some nasties from the other dimension still persist in our heroes' world."
Netflix will release Stranger Things: Tales From '85 on April 23. The animated spin-off features a new voice cast and a distinct visual style compared with the live-action series. The series is set during the winter between seasons 2 and 3, after Eleven closes the gate to the Upside Down. Some creatures from the other dimension continue to appear in the heroes' world, creating new dangers. The trailer offers limited plot details but highlights tonal contrasts, a humorous end gag about audience misconceptions, and a hair-raising circular-saw moment. The animated format and new cast make the trailer a striking departure from the recently concluded main series.
