While a “Stranger Things” takeover of the X-Men in the MCU would be a lot of fun, several members of the cast and crew of the hit series already have connections to the franchise, most notably “Thunderbolts” actor David Harbour, who is reprising his role as the Russian hero Red Guardian from 2021’s “Black Widow.” Meanwhile, Sadie Sink has been rumored to appear in the same film as the villain Songbird, and Shawn Levy, who is directing “Deadpool 3,” has been a director and producer of “Stranger Things” since its beginning.
Obviously, no fan expects the entire cast of the Netflix series to start donning the X-Men spandex, but with “Stranger Things” Season 5 restarting production and the actors soon freed up from their long-term obligations, at least one or two could eventually find their way into the MCU. Unless that happens, however, Kode Abdo’s art is as close as fans will get.
