Another new face will enter the town limits of Hawkins in the second season of Stranger Things.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Brett Gelman will appear in Stranger Things Season 2 as "Murray Bauman, a disgraced journalist turned conspiracy theorist who is investigating a cold case in Hawkins."

Known primarily for his comedic roles in films and TV shows, including appearances in The Other Guys and 30 Minutes or Less, Gelman joins a season 2 cast that recently added Sean Astin, Paul Reiser, and Linnea Berthelsen to its ranks. Other newcomers to the show include Dacre Montgomery (the new Power Rangers movie) and Sadie Sink (American Odyssey).

Production is now underway on the second season of Stranger Things, which will be released in 2017 on Netflix, and we'll be sure to keep Daily Dead readers updated on further details. In the meantime, catch up on our previous coverage of the ’80s-set series:

    About the Author - Derek Anderson

    Raised on a steady diet of R.L. Stine’s Goosebumps books and Are You Afraid of the Dark?, Derek has been fascinated with fear since he first saw ForeverWare being used on an episode of Eerie, Indiana.

    When he’s not writing about horror as the Senior News Reporter for Daily Dead, Derek can be found daydreaming about the Santa Carla Boardwalk from The Lost Boys or reading Stephen King and Brian Keene novels.
