Like the rest of us, horror legend Stephen King has been watching Stranger Things 4. On Saturday, the novelist tweeted out an idea for a spinoff show focused on one of this season’s (non-creature) bad guys.
“I love that slimy, slinky Russian guy Yuri”, King wrote. “He deserves his own show. Like BARRY, only Russian.”
Stranger Things describes Yuri, who’s portrayed by actor Nikola Djuricko, as “a seedy and unpredictable Russian smuggler who loves bad jokes, cold hard cash, and crunchy style peanut butter.” On the show, Yuri is the middleman in a deal between Joyce and a prison guard named Enzo, tasked with collecting payment from Joyce and helping Hopper in the last leg of his escape from a Russian prison camp.
