Netflix’s sci-fi drama Stranger Things is one of the most popular shows amongst the viewers. In 2016, Stranger Things came into our lives. Now fans can’t wait for its season four. However, the show is on hold due to the global pandemic. Recently, Stranger Things star Natalia Dyer who portrayed the character of Nancy Wheeler in the show gets candid and blamed the media. Know the reason why!
Why Natalia Dyer blames the media?
The sci-fi story revolves around a bunch of teenagers and the disappearance of a young boy amid supernatural events occurring around the town, including the appearance of a girl with psychokinetic abilities. The show featured Millie Bobby Brown (Eleven), Finn Wolfhard (Mike Wheeler) Noah Schnapp (Will Buyers) Gaten Matarazzo (Dustin) Caleb McLaughlin (Lucas), and Sadie Sink (Max).
There’s no denying the show gave a huge amount of fame to their young stars especially Millie Bobby Brown who plays a character of a lead actress in the show. Lately, Natalia Dyer told in one of her interviews with Independent and gets candid about how media is oversexualizing younger kids for the sake of some clicks.
It all started when Millie Bobby Brown was a part of the listicle by W Magazine which was titled “reasons TV is sexier than ever”. She was just 13 at that time and was on the list with many elder stars like Nicole Kidman and James Franco.
Natalia Dyer is protective about her younger co-stars
While talking to Independent, Natalia said “There are so many layers going on here. I generally feel like to me, it’s oversexualising them. I feel protective over the young kids even though they aren’t kids anymore, they’re teens”
She also added, “They’re all great people and all having to grow up in very crazy circumstances. As a private person, I just feel like, leave people alone, unless you are talking about their work or what they want to talk about. Just let people be the people that they are, without any judgment”
