Caleb McLaughlin: 'Racism from Stranger Things fandom took a toll on me'
While speaking at Heroes Comic Con Belgium, the 20-year-old, who plays Lucas Sinclair on the Netflix series, addressed racist hate levelled at him from the show's fans. “It definitely took a toll on me as a younger kid.” Caleb said. “My very first Comic Con, some people didn't stand in my line because I was Black. Some people told me, 'Oh I didn't want to be in your line, because you were mean to Eleven'.” Caleb McLaughlin / Heroes Comic Con Belgium.
