After the U.S. launch, it rolls out worldwide to places like Brazil, Singapore, Norway, Australia, the Netherlands, Germany, Portugal, Italy, and India. This spinoff fills the gap between Stranger Things seasons 2 and 3, bringing back 11, Dustin, Mike, Lucas, and Max in animated form. It's not the original actors voicing them, but fans are loving the fresh animated vibe
