With brand new Netflix series All the Light We Cannot See<\/a> being released this November, Shawn Levy is busy with the new four-parter, which sees him stepping into the director\u2019s seat to adapt the acclaimed novel by Anthony Doerr.<\/p>\n

Levy is perhaps best known for his work on films like the Night at the Museum film franchise and Cheaper by the Dozen, but is also known for his work as primary producer on Netflix\u2019s Stranger Things<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The fan-favourite sci-fi series is currently on hold due to the ongoing the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes<\/a> in the US, but when promoting All the Light We Cannot See, RadioTimes.com<\/a> asked Levy about the anticipated fifth and final season of Stranger Things<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Speaking about any possible character plot lines that could be explored in season 5, Levy said: \u201cWhen we give Noah the juicy stuff, he delivers and season 5 will be doing that once again.\u201d<\/p>

While things remain under wraps for now as to the specifics of season 5, Levy did give us a clue about some of the emotions we may be feeling when that final season is released \u2013 and you may need a tissue or two.<\/p>\n

When pressed for whether there will be any tears in the final season, Levy revealed:\u00a0\u201cBig tears, lots of them.\u201d<\/p>\n

As for now, we\u2019ll just have to wait and see what could be in store for the beloved batch of characters in what is set to be a cinematic finale, which fans got a glimpse of in the teaser trailer<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Levy has turned his sights on another Netflix project for now, though, in the form of All the Light We Cannot See. The new series is actually Levy\u2019s first period drama, with him also telling RadioTimes.com<\/strong>: \u201cIt\u2019s funny as a veteran of many movies and shows to feel like this is, in some ways, a debut. It definitely is my first foray into historic drama.\u201d<\/p>\n

Initially a fan of the novel, Levy said of his decision to direct the adaptation series: \u201cI just found it to be so suspenseful, so \u2013 in some ways \u2013 romantic, this idea of two destinies slowly intersecting. And it was also saying things that felt important.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019ve turned out to be themes that are also very, very timely. It had characters I cared for, it had a world that I needed to build on an epic scale, and it had themes that were resonant and I thought they\u2019d be resonant to many other people beyond myself.\u201d<\/p>\n
