Stranger Things season 3 is gearing up for the production as Netflix announces an addition of new member in the series. Besides that, the makers have also upped a guest actor to a new lead, who first appeared in season 2.
The US streaming giant has added Maya Hawke as one of the lead characters and Priah Ferguson from season 2 will recur.
According to Netflix, Priah Ferguson, who played the role of Lucas's sister Erica Sinclair in Stranger Things Season 2, stole the limelight by her sheer brilliant acting.
