TooFab recently spoke with star Gaten Matarazzo, who teased some of the action to come.
"We have new characters joining the cast. We got to work with new people, especially a new actress Sadie Sink, who I had known before this but she's the new kid joining our gang in Season 2, which is going to be fun," the 14-year-old actor told TooFab. "It's got a new vibe, similar vibes and it's just gonna be a lot more action packed than the first season."
He also spoke about getting to work more with Noah Schnapp, who spent most of Season 1 in the Upside-Down as missing Will. Watch the full interview below.
