“A lot of people can’t even handle the thought of a Season 5 without some excuse for Eddie’s presence – Highly unlikely. Highly unlikely. Highly unlikely,” Levy stated.
For clarification, it’s not ‘lowly unlikely’, or ‘averagely unlikely’ – it’s highly unlikely.
“We hear you, world. We know you’re obsessed with Eddie [and] so were we.”
Joseph Quinn's Eddie Munson became an instant fan-favourite when he was introduced in the latest season of Stranger Things but was (presumably) killed off during the final episode.
There is a slight chance Levy’s just trying to misdirect the audience to make Eddie’s return more of a surprise (heck, we’ve even heard a solid theory of how he could come back), but for now, we’ll have to take Levy's word at face value.
RIP Eddie Munson (?)
