Stranger Things stars receiving major pay rises for season 3

March 21, 2018 by Gary Collinson

With Stranger Things proving to be a huge success for Netflix, Deadline is reporting that the cast of the supernatural drama series are in line for major salary increases for the third season and beyond.

According to the site, child stars Finn Wolfhard, Gaten Matarazzo, Noah Schnapp, Caleb McLaughlin and Millie Bobby Brown are expected to receive between $200,000 and $250,000 per episode for season three, up from around $30,000 an episode for the first two seasons. Breakout star Brown is said to have received a bigger raise than her co-stars for her Emmy-nominated role as Eleven.

Winona Ryder and David Harbour have landed new deals in the region of $300,000 to $350,000 an episode, with series regulars Natalia Dyer and Charlie Heaton looking at between $100,000 and $150,000.
