The team behind *Stranger Things 5* is wrapping up their journey with a final behind-the-scenes look.
Netflix has released a new documentary called *One Last Adventure: The Making of Stranger Things 5*, which will be available on the streaming platform on Monday, January 12.
Directed by Martina Radwan, *One Last Adventure* gives an in-depth view of the hard work and creativity involved in making the last season of the Duffer Brothers' hit series.
The documentary was produced by Angus Wall, Terry Leonard, and Kent Kubena, and was made by MakeMake Productions.
The Duffer Brothers, who created *Stranger Things*, shared their thoughts on the documentary.
They said, “Growing up in Durham, North Carolina, we dreamed of becoming filmmakers — but Hollywood felt impossibly far away. Everything changed when we watched the behind-the-scenes documentaries for *The Lord of the Rings* — on-the-ground films that showed the real nuts and bolts of how a massive production actually gets made. We saw how stressed Peter Jackson was and thought: Yep, that’s the dream. With the decline of physical media, that kind of behind-the-scenes storytelling has largely disappeared. We wanted to bring it back. *One Last Adventure: The Making of Stranger Things Season 5* — beautifully captured and directed by Martina Radwan — is our attempt to do just that. If you love *Stranger Things*, or if you're simply curious how a major Hollywood production comes to life, this one's for you.”
Martina Radwan added, “I’m endlessly grateful to the Duffer Brothers for trusting me with a front-row seat to this incredible journey.
Spending a full year on set with them was a true privilege — and an absolute thrill. Being able to get close and watching them bring this beloved show to life in real time was pure joy. I only wish I could travel back in time and document seasons one through four. From the cast to their longtime collaborators, everyone welcomed me with remarkable generosity, openly sharing their personal and collective experiences from a decade of creative filmmaking. The Duffers always push boundaries and inspire everyone to be better, including myself. Their process and the show represent everything I love about filmmaking.”
*Stranger Things* was created by Matt and Ross Duffer.
It is produced by Upside Down Pictures and 21 Laps Entertainment.

The series finale, which was released on New Year’s Eve, runs for 128 minutes.
In *Stranger Things 5*, set in the fall of 1987, the group of teens — along with some of their parents who are interested in their whereabouts — set out to defeat Vecna, while trying to stay alive.
