Stranger Things: Tales From ’85, which is set in the Stranger Things universe, picks up with Eleven (voiced by Brooklyn Davey Norstedt), Mike (Luca Diaz), Will (Benjamin Plessala), Dustin (Braxton Quinney), Lucas (Elisha “EJ” Williams), and Max (In Your Dreams’s Jolie Hoang-Rappaport) in the winter of 1985. The horrors of the Upside Down are finally fading, and the kids have settled back into a normal life of Dungeons & Dragons and snowball fights.

But something terrifying has awakened beneath the snow blanketing Hawkins, and it’s up to our crew to solve this mystery and save the town before it’s too late.

Additional voice cast includes Brett Gipson as Hopper, Odessa A’zion as newcomer Nikki Baxter, Jeremy Jordan (SupergirlHazbin Hotel) as Steve, and Janeane Garofalo and Lou Diamond Phillips in yet-to-be-revealed roles.

Robles also executive produces the series via Flying Bark Productions, along with the Duffer Brothers and Hilary Leavitt via Upside Down Pictures, Shawn Levy via 21 Laps, and Dan Cohen.

Stranger Things: Tales From ’85 premieres April 23 on Netflix. Learn more about the series here. Plus, read up on the new creatures and what else to expect in our interview with Robles.
