Djo, the music moniker of Stranger Things star Joe Keery, has told NME about how his love of Charli XCX and the Chicago DIY scene has been instrumental in his own sound.The musician and actor, who played Steve Harington in the hit Netflix show, has released two albums under the Djo alias, most recently 2022’s ‘Decide’.That album is where the song ‘End Of Beginning’ was first released, although it is in recent months that the track has become a major trend on TikTok, with users taking advantage of its woozy, nostalgic quality to illustrate their memories of their hometowns, especially, as referred to in the song’s lyrics, Chicago.Following the viral success of the song, it has become a major chart hit on both sides of the Atlantic.And now, Djo has told NME about his love of British pop iconoclast Charli XCX, and the impact that her writing style has had on his own.“I feel like what she’s really good at is writing a song that is really about a specific thing,” Djo said. “A great example is this song from her most recent album [‘2022’s ‘Crash’] called ‘Yuck’.

A photo posted on X (formerly Twitter) on Monday shows the cast posing together under the caption, “Stranger Things 5 production has officially begun!”A script is visible on the lap of Finn Wolfhard, who plays Mike Wheeler in the Netflix megahit.It’s a welcome sight for fans of the series, which hasn’t released new episodes since the second half of Season 4 in July 2022.“Excited to watch!” exclaimed a fan on X underneath the photo of the cast and crew.“Yess! Let’s go team Stranger Things! Let’s gooo!” another fan tweeted.Fans are expecting big things from Season 5, which was close to starting production last May but was delayed due to the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes.The show’s writers, Matt and Ross Duffer, had already completed scripts for Season 5, but, at that point, there was no sense in trying to film anything without actors, so production was put off until now.Even then, though, fans likely won’t see the new episodes until 2025, according to reports.“Terminator” co-star Linda Hamilton has joined the cast and can be seen in the photo posted on X.“I don’t know how to be a fangirl and an actress at the same time,” Hamilton said during her video announcement on Tudum, the Netflix online newsletter.
