The Hawkins kids are all grown up — and crashing SNL.
Finn Wolfhard used his Saturday Night Live monologue to officially announce that his child star era is over — though his Stranger Things costars Caleb McLaughlin and Gaten Matarazzo had other plans.
Hosting the Saturday, January 17 episode of SNL, the 23-year-old actor kicked things off by addressing life after Stranger Things, the Duffer Brothers’ sci-fi juggernaut that wrapped its run in December 2025 after first premiering when Wolfhard was just 12.
Wolfhard described the end of the series as “bittersweet,” before joking about how much of his adolescence played out on screen.
“I gotta tell you, it’s so amazing that 400 million people got to watch me go through puberty,” he quipped. “What a dream.”
The show then aired a mock clip highlighting “the exact moment” Wolfhard’s voice changed, exaggerating a scene opposite Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) as his voice dropped to an absurdly deep register.
“My voice changed on camera. My first kiss was on camera. And — I can’t actually believe I’m admitting this, but — the first time I learned what a woman looks like down there was on there as well,” he added, punctuated by footage of a Demogorgon roaring.
