Stranger Things season 4 has brought the highly anticipated return to the beloved Hawkins gang after being away from our screens for nearly three years.
After months of the cast continuously teasing us on what to expect after the shock end of season three, fans can now dive in to the first batch of episodes ins season 4 volume 1, with volume 2 dropping in July.
The new series has seen the return of Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown), Mike (Finn Wolfhard), Will (Noah Schnapp), Joyce (Winona Ryder), Hopper (David Harbour) and the rest of the much-loved characters, but there are also some other unfamiliar faces on the scene.
Among the newcomers is Eleven’s school enemy, Angela, who goes about her day trying to embarrass and bully Eleven (going by the name Jane) at every moment she can.
It all begins with Angela disrupting Eleven’s assignment on Hopper, who she presents to the class as her father, but Angela interjects to state that they were meant to have looked into a real historical figure, not a family member.

From then on, Angela and her group of friends continue to bully and torment Eleven, making her their nemesis, and even tripping Eleven up causing her to destroy her diorama.
At a skating rink with Mike and Will, Eleven was left embarrassed when one of Angela’s sidekicks threw a milkshake all over her, before Eleven somewhat got her own back and smacked Angela in the middle of her face with a roller skate, leaving her bleeding and hysterically crying.
But who is Angela played by?
Angela is played by Elodie Grace Orkin, who you may recognise from elsewhere.
Elodie began her acting career back in 2018 when she starred as a child singer on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
After that, she went on to play Kyle in the 2020 TV series Stage Fright with the likes of Pressley Hosbach and Sophie Michelle, and Elodie has also featured in drama series We Hunt Together.
Most recently, Angela starred in 2021 movie Saving Paradise, before her Stranger Things debut.

Grace Van Dien, daughter of Starship Troopers actor Casper Van Dien – also joins as teenage cheerleader Chrissy, as does Teen Wolf star Mason Dye, as basketball team captain Jason Carver.
