"The sheer virality of @schmoyoho's handiwork - a remix of the disturbing Stranger Things scenein which Eddie Munson discovers his classmate's Vecna-d body - was a testament to viewers' love for the tender-hearted rocker. And even three years later, many wonder whether Joseph Quinn might reprise his role for the show's fifth and final season. There is one little obstacle that might complicate Eddie Munson's return in Stranger Things 5... he died."
"Quinn, for his part, has generally left the door open in interviews. Last year, when Entertainment Tonight's Rachel Smith told him she had a "feeling that we might see Eddie again," he responded: "Do you? You have a feeling? Huh. I might have that feeling too... or maybe I don't. Who knows? I don't know." When wondered about a potential return atthis year's The Fantastic Four: First Steps premiere, Quinn was similarly open-minded. "There's always a chance for anything, isn't there, really? Nothing's impossible," he said."
A viral remix of Eddie Munson's death scene boosted the character's popularity and kept speculation alive about a return. Eddie Munson’s on-screen death appeared definitive, but fans continue to theorize about vision- or flashback-based reappearances. Joseph Quinn has made coy, noncommittal remarks that leave a sliver of possibility open. Matt Duffer stated plainly that Eddie is dead and emphasized practical obstacles to a comeback, citing Joseph Quinn's heavy film schedule. Quinn's busy slate and logistical challenges make a significant return improbable, though small or non-literal appearances cannot be entirely ruled out.
