Stranger Things' David Harbour has revealed that the season 3 finale is the "most moving thing" they have ever filmed.

Speaking at MCM Comic-Con on Saturday (May 25), the actor said that the third season will explore his character Hopper and Eleven's (Millie Bobby Brown) father-daughter relationship in greater detail, which will lead to something "unexpected" and "moving" in the eighth episode.

"Millie [Eleven] is growing up and I think that's the terrifying thing for Hopper. He doesn't like the idea of his baby daughter hanging out with boys," he said. "So the season starts with him a little bit uncomfortable.

"His daughter is becoming a teenager and beginning to find herself, so that's scarier for Hopper than any Demogorgon creature that he's going to have to deal with.

"You get to see a lot of that throughout the season and it's very unexpected what happens in the end and it's very, very moving. I think episode eight is the most moving thing we've ever shot."

Also during the panel, Harbour admitted that there were "major problems" with the Hellboy reboot in which he starred.

He said: "We did our best, but there's so many voices that go into these things and they're not always going to work out. I did what I could do and I feel proud of what I did, but ultimately I'm not in control of a lot of those things."

Stranger Things returns for its third season on Netflix on July 4. Seasons 1 and 2 are available for streaming now.
