Duffer’s Instagram post revealed nine new set photos from Season 5 of Stranger Things, two featuring Sink and McLaughlin prominently. These images have given fans a tantalizing glimpse into the potential developments in the upcoming season.
Sink and McLaughlin’s characters, Max Mayfield and Lucas Sinclair have shared a close friendship since the show’s earlier seasons. Their characters were briefly involved in a romantic relationship, and despite its short-lived nature, the Season 4 finale hinted at lingering feelings between the two.
In Season 4, Max is nearly killed by Vecna, but Eleven saves her. However, she was left in a coma, and her fate in Season 5 is unknown.
Fans are eager to see what happens to Max in Season 5 and excited to see more of Sink and McLaughlin’s relationship behind the scenes. The two actors are good friends, and their chemistry on screen is undeniable.
In a recent interview, Sink talked about what it’s like to work with McLaughlin
“He’s one of my best friends,” she said. “We have so much fun together on set. Working with him is easy because we have such a good rapport.”
McLaughlin also has a lot of good things to say about Sink
“She’s an amazing actress,” he said. “She’s so talented, and she’s always prepared. It’s a pleasure to work with her.”
Sink and McLaughlin are both excited about Season 5 of Stranger Things
“I can’t wait to see what happens next,” Sink said. “I think it’s going to be the best season yet.”
McLaughlin agrees. “I think Season 5 is going to be epic,” he said. “I can’t wait for fans to see it.”
The first photo shows Sink, seemingly awake on a hospital bed, with a smiling McLaughlin by her side. This image and another picture of the actors holding hands have fueled fan theories about a potential rekindled romance.
While the true meaning of these images remains a mystery, one thing’s for sure – fans are desperate for Max to pull through and for Lucas to find happiness. Will their bond survive the Upside Down’s threats for one last adventure? Only time (and Season 5) will tell.
