Eleven's defeat of the Demogorgon in the finale left her fate uncertain, but the second season of Stranger Things made it clear that Mike hasn't given up hope that she is OK. So when do Eleven and Mike reunite on Stranger Things? Unfortunately, they don't really interact at all in the first two episodes of the season, though they come very close a few times.Įleven and Mike had an especially close friendship because she was hiding out in the blanket fort in his basement, and by the end of the first season it was clear a little tween romance was brewing between them. Mike in particular wanted to know what happened to her and they were in the same town, so they could have theoretically crossed paths at any time. Though the Duffer Brothers could also ultimately choose to leave that storyline untouched and have fans live with their own theories.Warning: spoilers from Episode 2 ahead! When it was revealed at the end of Episode 1 of Stranger Things Season 2 that Eleven was not only still alive, but out of the Upside Down, it seemed strange that she hadn't reconnected with her old friends. We probably won't get an answer about Will's sexuality until season 4. He still wants to be a kid and play in the basement like he did in old times," Noah told The Wrap. I kind of just interpret it like he’s not ready to grow up and he doesn’t really want to move on to dating and relationships yet. And it’s kind of, when you hear Mike say that line, it’s really up to the audience to interpret it. "You see in Episode 3, he just wants to play D&D in the basement, and now all of his friends have girlfriends and they are dating. He said that tense scene between Will and the other boys alluded to the fact that Will just isn't ready to grow up. In the show, it's easy to tell that Will loves gaming and is pretty close with his mom Joyce, so could the hint about Will's identity issues also be true?Īctor Noah Schnapp interpreted Mike's line to Will in a totally different way, though he agreed it's really up to the audience how they decide to take that scene. The show's creators made lots of changes to the show production (like the fact it ended up being called Stranger Thing s), but a lot stayed the same. So, the original plan was that Will would have issues with his sexual identity. His brother, Jonathan, helps raise him in lieu of their father, who abandoned them four years ago." He has a close relationship with his mother, Joyce. Like Mike, Will escapes through fantasy gaming, where he can be himself, uninhibited. He only recently came to the realization that he does not fit into 1980s definition of 'normal.' His innocent choices, such as his colorful clothes, prove a constant source of bullying. Here's what their original description said: "WILL BYERS, twelve, is a sweet, sensitive kid with sexual identity issues. When the brothers were pitching the show, which was originally called Montauk, the brothers already had an idea of who Will would be. It seems like the Duffer Brothers' original notes on the show's characters provided a hint that Will could be gay, according to ScreenRant. But it was Mike's comment that had fans coming up with their own theories about Will's sexuality.Īfter Wills runs off, Mike catches up to him frustrated, snaps and says, "It's not my fault you don't like girls." That comment can be interpreted several ways, but lots of fans theorized that it was hinting that Will is actually gay and the theory may not have been too far from the truth. That's why he loses it when Mike and Lucas ditch their game of Dungeons and Dragons to go hang out with the girls. In season 3, it seems that he's struggling with the evolving interests of his friends.
The only one who doesn't have a romantic interest in season 3 is Will. In fact all the boys end up with someone: Mike with El, Lucas with Max and Dustin with Suzie. Her personality shines in season 3 and she even ends up having a little fling with Mike.
El is not longer that shy, cautious little girl that was first found in the woods. It's only been three years since the first season of Stranger Things premiered but it's crazy how much the kids have grown up since then, both in their real lives and on the show.
