Clearly, Netflix is tossing every last one of its eggs into the Upside Down, splitting Stranger Things 4 into two gargantuan volumes-the first of which runs a whopping nine hours long across just seven episodes-released a month apart. Outside of work, yes, he's uttering phrases that will make you feel deeply, ego-shatteringly old, like "working in the city" and "an apartment with three cats."īut there's still the main attraction, the Stranger Things of it all, one of Netflix's last true franchises, even if the past two seasons haven't quite matched up to the hype of the first. Now, Matarazzo is 19, with a handful of non- Stranger Things projects in the works, like starring in this summer's Honor Society alongside Christopher Mintz-Plasse, and joining the Broadway cast of Dear Evan Hansen. For the record, Matarazzo was 14 years old when the show debuted, charming audiences with its '80s-hued horror mystery-which sees demons from an alternate dimension invade their tiny Indiana town.

"The lightbulbs in my bathroom haven't been changed in a month and I'm completely fine peeing in the dark," he says. the night before we met (he's a tennis guy!), but he's highly concerned about bathroom appliances, too. Sure, Matarazzo played Switch Sports until 1 a.m. He still has that sweet-hearted grin, the one made of butterflies and confetti, and now, the slightest tinge of aged wisdom, the kind that only comes when you've lived a certain amount of life, and been through a certain amount of things. Matarazzo is wearing a technicolored cardigan that's way cooler than anything in my closet, and probably yours, too. I'm talking to Gaten Matarazzo, who, in the primordial era of July 2016, was once the babiest of all the baby Stranger Things kids-playing Dustin, the goofy one with the trucker hat-and he's telling me about moving into a new place with his girlfriend. Is it possible? Is it true? Have the Stranger Thingskids really grown up?
