'Stranger Things' Season 3 trailer sees the children enter their teen years as Netflix promises 'a summer that will change everything'

This summer might be the turning point in their lives as they set out to try new things, but the danger is still there.

It's finally here! Netflix has dropped the official trailer of creator Duffer Brothers' 'Stranger Things', and let's just say it gives away quite a lot about the show. Starring Millie Bobby Brown (Eleven), Finn Wolfhard (Mike), Gaten Matarazzo (Dustin), Caleb McLaughlin (Lucas), Noah Schnapp (Will), and Sadie Sink (Max), 'Stranger Things' Season 3 is set to pick up from where Season 2 had left off, but only this time the kids are all grown up. 

Entering into their early teenhood, the trailer reveals that the show is about to begin with them celebrating Dustin's birthday, and with that, there are several new turns their friendship is about to take. It seems that with all his friends going out into the field to celebrate the eve of July 4, Will perhaps is still not allowed by his mother, Joyce (Winona Ryder), to go out unsupervised. We hear him exclaiming that they are all teenagers now, and nobody would want to stay back home and play in the basement with toys. On the other Dustin seems a bit off since both Lucas and Mike are all set to hang out with the girls, but he has not been so lucky on that field so far.
