In this episode, Big Jim sits down with Stranger Things star Sherman Augustus, the actor behind Colonel Jack Sherman, for an inside look at the long-awaited final season of Netflix’s blockbuster series. Augustus breaks down the truth about practical effects vs. CGI, what really went into filming the brutal “Max Z” action sequence, and how stunt teams brought the Demogorgons to life on set.

He also opens up about crafting his character’s emotional “come to Jesus” moment, why he stopped himself from reading too far into the Season 5 scripts, and how the Duffer Brothers gave every character a meaningful payoff in the final chapter.

And at the end, Augustus drops a subtle but revealing clue about Eleven’s evolution, teasing how Millie Bobby Brown’s character steps fully into superhero territory — on her own terms.

If you’re a fan of Stranger Things, on-set filmmaking, or behind-the-scenes storytelling, this is one of the most revealing conversations about Season 5 yet.
