With all of the buzz surrounding Stranger Things and its successful third season this summer, it's not surprising to see more and more actors wanting to be involved. Recently, Reese Witherspoon suggested she'd join the hit series on Twitter.

As ShowBiz Cheat Sheet reports, the Academy Award-winning actress posted a throwback photo during awards season with Stranger Things stars Millie Bobby Brown and Noah Schnapp, asking if they're hiring for the as-yet-announced fourth season.

Witherspoon also shared her support for the show and its cast for the Emmy Awards last night, however the third season premiered too late to be considered for this year's show. The Big Little Lies actress will have to wait until next year to root for her favorite Hawkins gang!

As for joining the cast, it's not entirely clear if Witherspoon was simply joking about the whole thing, but having another A-list celebrity on board for Stranger Things' fourth season would certainly spark viewership. Along with its talented up-and-coming actors, the Netflix show has seen appearances from the likes of Sean Astin, Cary Elwes, and Jake Busey, not to mention one of its stars, Oscar nominee Winona Ryder.

While fans would likely love to see Witherspoon take on a role in Stranger Things, we'll be patiently waiting to see if a fourth season is even announced before we get our hopes up.
