Linda Hamilton, known for her iconic role in the Terminator franchise, has recently shared her experience with joining the cast of ‘Stranger Things’ in an exclusive interview with Us Weekly. The 67-year-old actress expressed her love for the show, admitting that she had watched every season with relish. However, her excitement turned into a feeling of ‘imposter syndrome’ after being cast in the series, as she felt she didn’t fit into the world set in the ’80s.

Hamilton humorously explained that her involvement in the show had ‘ruined’ it for her, as she could no longer watch it without feeling disconnected. She revealed that she has a policy of not watching any project she’s involved in, as it would take her out of the reality of the show. Consequently, she jokingly announced that she won’t be tuning in for season 5 of ‘Stranger Things.’

The actress discussed her interaction with the show’s creators, Ross and Matt Duffer, who provided her with insights into her character but kept the storyline under wraps. Hamilton emphasized the discipline required to keep the details confidential, acknowledging the need to protect the show from spoilers and leaks.

While she couldn’t disclose any specifics about her role, Hamilton expressed her joy and satisfaction with her time on set, highlighting the respect and love she holds for the Duffer brothers. Her enthusiasm for the project was evident as she shared her experience of being present for table reads and the thrill of being part of the ‘Stranger Things’ universe.

‘Stranger Things,’ which debuted in 2016, has captivated audiences with its supernatural storyline set in a fictional Indiana town. Hamilton’s casting for the upcoming season 5 has generated anticipation and curiosity among fans, as no details about her character have been revealed. As the show continues to maintain secrecy around its plot, viewers eagerly await the next installment to unravel the mysteries and mayhem in the ‘Stranger Things’ universe.
