Sadie Sink talks the end of Stranger Things and how it is ‘scary and sad’ to think of saying goodbye

Sadie Sink admitted that the end of Stranger Things is going to be emotional for her.

The hit Netflix series premiered in 2017 and was revealed last year that it will conclude after its fifth season, which could hit the streaming platform in 2024.

The 20-year-old actress, who has played the character of Max Mayfield since season two, recently spoke about the show during a TODAY show appearance.

‘It’s going to be awful. It’s going to be horrible,” Sink said. “These kids, this entire cast and crew, it’s family. People say that all the time, but I mean it.

She continued: ‘And to think that we have to say goodbye to that security and know that we will see each other for another season? It’s scary and sad.

Sink said it was “exciting to move on” despite her sadness at the show’s conclusion.

When asked what season five might have in store for fans, Sink was quick to say that he didn’t know anything for sure.

“With the way my character ended up in Season 4, I have no idea what’s going to happen, but I’ll be there,” he said.

Sink joined the cast as Max Mayfield during the show’s second season in 2017. He had a major role in the show’s fourth season and will presumably appear as a main character in the fifth season.

Sink recently took on a more down-to-earth role in Darren Aronofsky’s The Whale, which centered on an English teacher (Brendan Fraser) trying to reconnect with his estranged daughter (Sink).

Sink is currently working on a new movie titled Berlin Nobody written and directed by Jordan Scott.

The film follows “American social psychologist Ben Monroe investigates a local cult linked to a disturbing event, while his daughter becomes involved with a mysterious local boy,” according to his IMDb page.

Troy actor Eric Bana is playing Monroe and Blade Runner 2049’s Sylvia Hoeks will star alongside Sink.
