‘Stranger Things’ unscripted kiss ‘stressed out’ Sadie Sink

Sadie Sink’s first kiss came as a surprise, and not a pleasant one.

The “Stranger Things” star, who joined the cast for the second season of the hit Netflix show, said that creators Matt and Ross Duffer added her character’s kiss at the Snow Ball last minute, despite her objections.

“The kiss was not written in the script,” Sink, 15, said.

“I get there, the first day of Snow Ball, me and Noah (Schnapp) are walking in seeing the decorations and stuff. One of you, I think it was you Ross, you say, ‘Oh, Sadie, you ready for the kiss?’ I’m like, ‘What! No! That’s not in the script. That’s not happening.’ So the whole day I was like stressed out, I was like ‘oh my god, wait, am I gonna have to…’”

Ross Duffer blamed Sink’s reactions for his insistence on the kiss.

“You reacted so strongly to this. I was just joking and you were so freaked out that I was like well, I gotta make her do it now,” he said on “Beyond Stranger Things.”

McLaughlin, 16, also said the kiss left him “feeling weird.”

The forced kiss comes with renewed interest amid a widespread Hollywood scandal of sexual harassment and assault.
