Stranger Things has set a new standard for teen sci-fi, becoming a global hit that has captivated audiences for over a decade. With a gripping storyline, terrifying creatures like the Demogorgons, and the chilling presence of Vecna, the show has become a phenomenon. Besides the supernatural thrills, fans have also fallen in love with the characters’ relationships. But with Season 5 on the horizon, one of these beloved romances seems to be nearing its end—or so it seems.
From Nancy and Jonathan to Eleven and Mike, the show offered something for everyone. But it was Max and Lucas who really struck a chord with viewers. Now, with Max in a coma and questions lingering about her fate, Caleb McLaughlin hinted to Film Stocked that “things might not go well.” Surprisingly, fans seem to be accepting this possible turn of events.

The mood around Season 5 has been gloomy, not just because of production delays, but also due to the emotional ending of the last season. The question remains: will things ever brighten up in Hawkins, especially for Max and Lucas after he couldn’t save her?

With the next season confirmed as the final one, the show’s creators have kept the details under wraps. The focus seems to be on tying up the many loose threads from the previous seasons. But given everything Max has gone through, the chances of her and Lucas having a happy ending seem slim.
Here’s my thoughts, what if max woke up from her coma and doesn’t want anything to do with Lucas cause she blames him for not turning the music on? Not knowing ofc Jason intervened and broke it, I’m surprised nobody’s rlly mentioned this possibility
