"This show would be so much better if the stakes were much higher, like at any moment any of these kids can kick it. I feel like we’re all too safe," Matarazzo said, via CBR.
Matarazzo -- who was also joined on the panel by costars Finn Wolfhard and Grace Van Dien -- also playfully deflected questions from impatient fans who wanted to know more about the upcoming season five. "That we’re making it," he responded.
Details on Stranger Things' final season still remain strictly under wraps, though the series recently added Terminator icon Linda Hamilton to the cast.
Stranger Things season five is expected to premiere in 2025.
