Netflix – as part of “Geeked Week” – had The Duffer Brothers officially announce on Twitter that the next season of Stranger Things will be introducing actors Amybeth McNulty, Myles Truitt, Regina Ting Chen, and Grace Van Dien in recurring roles.
And here’s everything you need to know about each of the new characters:
- Amybeth McNulty (Anne with an E) will play Vickie, a cool, fast-talking band nerd who catches the eye of one of our beloved heroes.
- Myles Truitt (Queen Sugar, Black Mafia Family) will play Patrick, a Hawkins basketball star who has friends, talent, and a good life…until shocking events send his life spiraling out of control.
- Regina Ting Chen (Queen of the South, The Falcon and The Winter Soldier) as Ms. Kelly, a popular guidance counselor who cares deeply for her students—especially those struggling the most.
- Grace Van Dien (Charlie Says, The Village) as Chrissy, Hawkins’ High lead cheerleader and the most popular girl in school. But beneath the seemingly perfect surface lies a dark secret.
Meanwhile, here's the tweet itself:
