Whether you’re a die-hard fan or just love fun behind-the-scenes facts, this guide gives you a fascinating glimpse into the surprising realities behind your favorite characters.

Millie Bobby Brown

Milly Bobby Brown portrays Eleven/Jane, a fiercely powerful girl with extraordinary telepathic and psychokinetic abilities who escapes from a secret government lab and befriends a group of local boys who become her first real family. She might not be the tallest in the cast, standing at 5 feet 3 inches and a half tall, but Brown is one of the most magnetic actors in the series. She was born on Feb. 19, 2004, making her 21 years old and her zodiac sign Pisces.

Finn Wolfhard

Finn Wolfhard is best known for starring as Mike Wheeler, the loyal and brave friend who becomes Eleven’s closest ally and eventual boyfriend.

Now that Wolfhard is past his teenage years, he’s reached about 5 feet 11 inches tall, making him taller than many of his fellow co-stars. Additionally, he was born on Dec. 23, 2002, making him 22 years old and his zodiac sign Capricorn.

Noah Schnapp

You might recognize Noah Schnapp for his role as Will Byers, the sensitive and courageous boy whose mysterious disappearance in the first season of Stranger Things sets off the series’ chilling events. He might not be 5 feet 11 inches tall like his co-star Wolfhard, but Schnapp is the average height for a male in the United States.

He currently stands at 5 feet 9 inches tall, which is a huge difference from his season 1 height. When it comes to when this talented actor was born, Schnapp entered the world on Oct. 3, 2004, in New York City. This makes him 21 years old and his zodiac sign Libra.

He celebrates his birthday on Sept. 8, 2002, and has grown from a breakout child actor into a beloved and influential young star in Hollywood. In addition, he is 23 years old, and his zodiac sign is Virgo.
