Caleb McLaughlin, the 17-year-old best known for his role as Lucas on 'Stranger Things,' hopes to surprise his fans — and earn some new ones — with the release of his music, a first for the actor.
It’s Fourth of July week and Caleb McLaughlin, along with the rest of the “Stranger Things” cast, is headed to Italy. Not the most patriotic of celebrations, sure, but as the Netflix show continues on — season three is released Thursday — the fan base only continues to swell, with international viewers multiplying.
McLaughlin, who is now 17, auditioned for the show back in 2015. “I was just really excited to be a part of a TV show. I was just happy that landed a series regular,” he says. “I felt that my life would change a little bit, I felt that I would gain fans from the show. But it’s just different now, just being in it and just going to award shows, being nominated and people calling me a legend and an icon. I’m like, I’m not a legend or an icon. I’m just an actor.
McLaughlin, who was recently seen in the Steven Soderbergh/Tarell Alvin McCraney movie “High Flying Bird,” warns fans that season three of “Stranger Things” ups the ante with gore and scare tactics. “I don’t think people have seen this side of me before,” he says. “I just want you guys to listen to it. I don’t really want to talk about it too much. I don’t want to jinx it.”
