Eddie has become an instant fan favorite after he made everyone fall in love with his eccentric but lovable character in Stranger Things Season 4. But just like any beloved supporting character, he has met his demise in the fourth season finale, which has become a trend in the series. So, will there be a chance for him to return to Stranger Things Season 5?

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter at the Primetime Emmy Awards, Levy talked about the fans’ clamor for Eddie’s return in the final season. Sadly, he has a straight answer: their wish is “highly unlikely.” “[Laughs] Oh boy, a lot of people - a lot of people - can’t even handle the thought of a Season 5 without some excuse for Eddie’s presence,” he said. “Highly unlikely. Highly unlikely. But we hear you, world. We know. You’re obsessed with Eddie. So were we.” ALSO READ: Vampire Academy Vs.
