My Take
Finn Wolfhard is my favorite case study in surviving child stardom with your soul intact. Most kids who blow up the way he did with Stranger Things either burn out or stay trapped in one role forever. Wolfhard quietly built escape routes: horror films like It, voice work, and a genuine music career that reads as passion rather than vanity project. There is an unforced, slightly awkward authenticity to him that the camera loves. He reached his twenties without a single tabloid meltdown, which in his cohort is nearly miraculous. I suspect his most interesting decade is still ahead, possibly behind the camera rather than in front of it.
