Finn Wolfhard Hosts SNL with Surprise Stranger Things Reunion

Jan. 18 (UPI) -- Finn Wolfhard hosted the first 2026 edition of Saturday Night Live this weekend. His former Stranger Things co-stars Gaten Matarazzo and Caleb McLaughlin dropped by unexpectedly as the 23-year-old actor performed his opening monologue. Keeping with the theme, the trio also appeared in a pre-recorded video proposing possible Stranger Things spin-offs, such as a Sex and the City-type comedy. Other possibilities mentioned were a drama with Steve teaching troubled kids and Nancy as a reporter covering the infamous O.J. Simpson Bronco chase. Rapper A$AP Rocky was the evening's musical guest.
