Still on a Stranger Things Season 4 high? The first look of its final chapters is already out and while we wait for Volume 2 in July, you might be busy rewatching the series from its first season or getting to know the filmography of its phenomenal cast. We’ve prepared this list of shows and movies where you’ll catch your favorite Hawkins gang:
Winona Ryder
Her role: Winona Ryder is Joyce Byers, Will and Jonathan’s mom. In the fourth season, we saw her living the WFH life in sunny California until she received a porcelain doll from Russia.

Where you’ve seen him:

Jamie Campbell Bower
His role: Jamie Campbell Bower’s complex role in Season 4 may just be one of the best villain origin stories ever written.
