Sadie Sink giggles watching her character Max from Stranger Things die on screen as opposed to her wide-eyed co-star Caleb McLaughlin.

Sadie Sink Giggles Watching Max “Die”, Meanwhile Caleb McLaughlin Is Visibly Traumatized

Spoiler Alert: This article contains spoilers for Stranger Things Season 4. With
the wrap of the much-anticipated Stranger Things season 4 Volume 2, everyone is
only talking about the 2-hour 22-minute grand finale. The epic battle,
cutting-edge CGI and overall production value, incredible performances, and of
course, tragic losses. The final episode was so perfect that it’s almost
unbelievable. However, we lost the beloved Eddie Munson (Joseph Quinn) and
perhaps Max, played by Sadie Sink.

Every character in Stranger Things
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/stranger-things/] put their blood and sweat
(literally) against the diabolical force of evil that was Vecna. With so much
going down in the last episode, one character that made the audience mourn the
most is probably Max. And it doesn’t help that her storyline is still “up in the
air“
[https://netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-sadie-sink-believes-stranger-things-season-5-will-be-more-prominent-than-others/]!,
as Sadie sink revealed
[https://deadline.com/2022/07/stranger-things-4-does-max-survive-season-5-1235057622/]
to Deadline.

SADIE SINK AND CALEB MCLAUGHLIN REACT TO MAX ON SCREEN

In an interview with host Felicia Day from Netflix Geeked, the entire cast, as
well as the creators, broke down the final two episodes of Season 4. Every actor
talked about their respective character’s journey and also hinted at the future
that lies ahead with Stanger Things 5
[https://netflixjunkie.com/duffer-brothers-make-big-revelations-about-stranger-things-season-5-episodes-and-storyline/].
During the interview, Day played a clip of Max’s final scene, and we see the
whole group’s body language and expression change.



While Caleb McLaughlin
[https://netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-caleb-mclaughlin-age-net-worth-latest-cars-house-siblings-girlfriend/],
who portrays Lucas Sinclair, is absolutely wide-eyed and traumatized, Sadie Sink
reacts- Max herself reacts with a short giggle. When asked how her character
“went through the wringer“, Sadie replies, “The last two episodes were kind of
insane.” She also admits she had “never seen that (the clip) before.”

When asked about how they felt after finally watching the scene, McLaughlin
chimed in. “When you see it all it puts in one, it gives me chills. It was
crazy. It’s actually crazy to see.” He opens up about the preparation and the
whole filming process. He then adds, “But when you see it all come together,
it’s like ‘Oh, it was worth it’. It was like, ‘Wow, that’s why we’re doing
this.'”


THE FINAL SCENE WITH MAX AND LUCAS

Despite only getting introduced in Season 2, Max now has a prominent part in the
show. She is one of the first to interact with the main antagonist, Vecna
[http://netflixjunkie.com/tag/vecna]. Max was also Vecna’s prime target in the
fourth season, as Billy’s (Dacre Montgomery) death made her particularly
vulnerable. In volume 2, she baits herself so her friends can defeat Vecna.

While the misdirect fails, Vecna’s gut-wrenching torture technique, including
the IT-style balloon sequence, was absolutely macabre. We hear her legs
shattering, and she is unable to see anything. She finally dies in Lucas’s arms
before being brought back to life by Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown
[http://netflixjunkie.com/tag/millie-bobby-brown]), only to slip into a coma.

[data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==]

Now that the season has ended, Sink [http://netflixjunkie.com/tag/sadie-sink]
and the others attempt to bring light to the show’s finale. Even the writers of
the show tweeted a joke regarding Max’s fate
[https://netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-the-doctors-say-its-a-miracle-sadie-sink-escaped-a-fatal-accident-stranger-things/].
What did you think of the finale? Will Max come back in season 5 even though
Eleven couldn’t find her
