I had friends - and I had situations - where you spend so much time hanging out with your girlfriend that you lose touch with other people. You only really have this one person - and when that person starts to let go, you almost feel like you need to clamp on even harder, you know?

Everyone thinks they're the hero in their own story.

I'd say that every haircut I've had has been a bad haircut.

Some people say, 'Oh, you look just like the guy from 'Stranger Things.' And I'm like, 'I am the guy.' And they think I'm totally joking.

I really liked sports and athletic stuff, but I was a total nerd.

I have four sisters, three younger sisters, so I've been an older sibling to people before.

I don't wash my hair really too much, and I just roll out of bed and try to push it out of my eyes.

All of the John Carpenter movies scared the crap out of me when I was a kid.

I've been doing both music and acting since I was pretty little. Just for fun. Being able to peruse both professionally is the greatest thing in the whole world.

For a long time, my dad was always on me about cutting my hair. 'Get a haircut. Gel your hair. You've got to do something to get your hair to stay down. It's too big; get it down! It's too crazy.'

Joe Keery

It's not like I really do anything for my hair; I just wash it every three to four days.

The best sequels throughout time keep what you really like about the first thing, but they aren't afraid to do their own thing for the next season and kind of grow, in a way.
