Taking to Instagram, Netflix dropped the trailer featuring glimpses of the cast from the eighth episode titled The Rightside Up in the show’s fifth and final season.
The trailer opens with a conversation between Hopper, played by David Harbour, and Eleven, portrayed by Millie Bobby Brown. Hopper urges Eleven to fight one last time and take vengeance for every scar, trauma and challenge that shattered the childhood of her and other kids in Hawkins.
Hopper can be heard saying, "I need you to fight one last time. Life has been so unfair to you. Your childhood was taken from you. You've been attacked and manipulated by terrible people, but you never let it break you. Fight for the days on the other side of this. Fight for a world beyond Hawkins. Let's end this, kid."
