Stranger Things, which has been with the crew for nearly a decade, is now heading into the conclusion of its fifth and final season. As heartwarming moments featuring the cast continue to surface online, fans have grown curious about the relationship between Finn Wolfhard (Mike Wheeler) and Sadie Sink (Max Mayfield).

The two actors have consistently described themselves as close friends. Over the years, they have often shown their support for each other.  Back in 2022, Sadie Sink and Finn Wolfhard, in their conversation on The A24 Podcast, showed support for each other’s respective projects, The Whale (Mike Wheeler) and When You Finish Saving the World (Sadie Sink).    

  Later in 2025, both Wolfhard and co-star Gaten Matarazzo attended the opening night of Sadie Sink’s Broadway play, John Proctor Is the Villain, to show their support once again. While their off-screen friendship has fueled baseless rumors of the two dating, both Finn Wolfhard and Sadie Sink have maintained that they share a genuine friendship.
