Millie Bobby Brown shares first look at Stranger Things season 4 – and confirms 2022 release date

Millie Bobby Brown, 17, shared the first look of the fourth season of Strange Things with an incredible trailer, which confirmed the series will be back on our screens in 2022.

"Eleven are you listening? " - your girl Millie Bobby Brown and the rest of gang are back... and from the looks of the spooky trailer, in a lot of trouble ...

The 17-year-old actress took to her social media earlier today (August 6) to share the new trailer for the long-awaited fourth season of Netflix's super popular sci-fi series, and captioned the post "see y'all in the upside-down".

The streaming service released a voiceover-heavy promo earlier this year, teasing the return of Matthew Modine's Martin Brenner, the villainous scientist who raised Eleven and several other test subjects and was indirectly responsible for unleashing the dreaded Demogorgon upon Hawkins, Indiana.

It didn't offer much to look at beyond clinical white walls and surgical gown-wearing children, however.

Fortunately, the sci-fi drama's latest trailer combines old footage with new clips from the eagerly-anticipated next chapter.

In it, you can see Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) being restrained by some authoritative-looking types, a puffer jacket-sporting Jim Hopper (Black Widow's David Harbour) wielding a flamethrower, and Steve (Joe Keery), Robin (Maya Hawke), Nancy (Natalia Dyer) and co grimacing at something off-screen in a shadowy cabin.
