Stranger Things season 4 was hands down the most intense season of the science fiction thriller so far. It showed the characters in a much darker light this time. And the Hawkings’ gang was nothing like how it was before. However, there was one character who did not just have a stunning glow-up last season but also had a significant screen space in a long time. Apart from the protagonist El, played by Millie Bobby Brown, Lucas Sinclair by Caleb McLaughlin, is one of the key characters in Stranger Things.

This young talent, Caleb McLaughlin, is already bagging significant roles in movies like Shooting Stars. And now, he has also managed to associate himself with the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Caleb McLaughlin featuring as Miles Morales in Spider-Man Fan Poster

Recently, an Instagram page called @marvels.wolverine put up a poster featuring Tom Holland alongside Hawkins’ funny guy, reported by ScreenRant. McLaughlin became a popular choice to play Miles Morales after the Stranger Things writers recommended the 21-year-old actor for the role of the biracial Spider-Man on 1st June. This caused a stir among both the Marvel and Stranger Things fandoms, as they did not know what to expect next.

Morales is the second Spiderman in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, created in the year 2011. He is likely to share the screen with Peter Parker in the upcoming Spiderman movie and can even take over Tom Holland’s character. At the climax of Peter Parker’s No Way Home, the Avenger is left all alone without his friends and family. Therefore, it would be a good idea to introduce another Spidey buddy in the upcoming movies. And who could be better for this role than Miles Morales? 

After seeing McLaughlin’s acting skills in the latest season of Stranger Things, fans are certain that this young talent will do justice to Spider-Man’s character. 

Best of Lucas Sinclair in Season 4 of Stranger Things

Season 4 witnessed the D&D geek transform into a hunk who plays sports. Along with his spiky hair, the height of his character arc was also significantly elevated in this season. The best part, however, was seeing him protect and cheer up his love interest, Max, played by Sadie Sink. Sinclair, who was often portrayed as a childish lad, became Max’s shield in this season. 

Seeing him cry in despair for losing Max was a tearjerker for all the Stranger Things fans. However, recent updates say that Sink’s character Max won’t be lying on the hospital bed for too long. The official Twitter page, Stranger News, posted a character update recently, confirming that Max’s character will indeed return in Season 5.
