Stranger Things Season Three Adds Cary Elwes, Jake Busey

“As you wish.” The Princess Bride’s iconic star, Cary Elwes, is joining the cast of the third season of Stranger Things, as is Starship Troopers star Jake Busey. According to Variety, Elwes will play Mayor Kline, the handsome, slick and sleazy 1980s politician who cares more about his own image than the town of Hawkins itself. Busey will play a journalist, Bruce, who has a sick sense of humor and very questionable morals.

Netflix’s chief content officer Ted Sarandos made the casting announcement today at Netflix’s See What’s Next event in Rome. Sarandos recently made the decision to pull all the streamer’s films from premiering at Cannes. Netflix has had monumental success with their original films, but most notably its television shows ,specifically Stranger Things. Sarandos said the show had “20 times more tweets than all of the films released at the U.S. box office the week it was released.” He continued by saying, “Our hits are not just coming from the U.S. anymore. Our next Stranger Things could just as likely come from anywhere in the world. I have a strong feeling it could come from right here.”
