Caleb McLaughlin Talks Lucas & Max's Relationship Status on 'Stranger Things'!

Caleb McLaughlin is getting real about the future of Stranger Things!

The 17-year-old actor, who plays Lucas on the Netflix hit, recently chatted with Entertainment Weekly about the show’s explosive third season and what’s next for his character.

One of fans’ biggest questions at the end of Stranger Things Season 3: Are Lucas and Max back together or not?

“I feel like we were never not good, it was weird,” Caleb said. “I was watching and I’m like ‘Oh yeah.’ I feel that Max and Lucas were helping out their friends and got caught up in what they were doing, and really forgot that they were good at that moment—something like ‘We’re not together.’ And it was like ‘All right then, I guess we’re not.’ Towards the end, once Mike and Eleven were good, then we’re like ‘All right we’re good now.’ I think it was like you know, there’s bros before the girls and the girls before the boys or whatever. What is even that saying, I don’t even know what it is.”

Caleb also opened up about the future of Stranger Things after Season 3′s cliffhanger.

“You never know you can go any way with the script,” he said. “It’s all up to the Duffers and the writers if they want to keep going. Maybe they want to stop now. Maybe they don’t want to give anyone another season. Maybe they just want to leave you guys hanging like that. I talk to people about this all the time, we can literally leave you guys hanging on the Upside Down. No one really knows what the Upside Down is, we just know what comes from it, like Demagorgons and like the Mind Flayer, but the Upside Down is an alternate dimension of our world. Our world is so big so there’s more than just Demadogs, and Demagorgons and Mind Flayers, so no one really knows.”
