So far so good – but what’s next in line for him?

Season Four of Stranger Things Is Around the Corner

Netflix recently released a teaser for the upcoming fourth season of the hit series, and fans went wild. The stars even had their first table read! We will surely see Jonathan, a.k.a. Charlie, back on the screen, but we know nothing beyond that. Aside from this gig, Heaton has several things in the making. He just finished shooting The New Mutants in Boston, and since the Netflix megahit, you can also see him in The Souvenir: Part II and an addiction drama that’s yet to release details.

So, in a way, he wants to one day be able to expand his arsenal and work with interesting, often challenging directors and projects.
