Stranger Things 2 is raising red flags after its creators pressured a child actress into an unscripted kiss

  • On the aftershow Beyond Stranger Things, the Duffer Brothers and 15-year-old actress Sadie Sink revealed that she “freaked out” when she learned on set that she had to kiss a guy for a scene, a kiss that wasn’t written in the script. As Amy Zimmerman points out, “the entire conversation, in which Sink repeatedly recalls feeling caught off-guard while the Duffers giggle, strikes an odd tone, particularly in light of ongoing conversations in Hollywood regarding the exploitation of underage actors and issues of consent.”
