Fans can definitely expect to see Steve Harrington back when Stranger Things season 4 (volume 1) arrives and hopefully there will be some more iconic babysitting moments that pair the older character with some of the original Strangers Things kid crew (who are now high schoolers). That said, the kids aren’t Steve’s only friends these days and the trailer suggests he’ll be reconnecting with the other older teens, as well.

During a recent roundtable interview with the cast of Stranger Things season 4 (volume 1), the conversation briefly turned to Steve’s babysitter-style relationship with the kids and whether he might ever show himself the same kind of care and protection he shows to everyone else who finds themselves in harm’s way while monsters and horrors invade Hawkins…
At that point, as Joe was pondering whether Steve might ever really show some self-care in Stranger Things season four and look out for himself, season three cast addition Maya Hawke chimed in to reassure Joe that her character, Robin Buckley, has Steve’s back…
Steve and Robin were a popular pairing during their shared season three plot in Starcourt Mall and hopefully fans can see that friendship continue to grow when season four arrives later this month. There was definitely a bit of a teaser towards the end of season three that Robin and Steve’s antics would continue outside of Starcourt Mall - perhaps at Family Video. Based on the conversation during the interview, it seems like the duo definitely still have each other’s backs.
Be sure to check back over the coming week for more features, news, and stories as Stranger Things season 4 (volume 1) arrives.
Stranger Things season 4, volume 1 releases on Netflix May 27. Volume 2 follows on July 1.
