In his interview with the publication, Harbour reflected fondly on his younger Stranger Things co-stars—Brown, 21, Finn Wolfhard, 22, Noah Schnapp, 21, Caleb McLaughlin, 24, Sadie Sink, 23, and Gaten Matarazzo, 23—“They’re all pretty good kids.”
Coming to the advice he would give the young lot, he said, “One of the real ropes to hang on to in this business for me has been the artistry of what you’re doing.” He continued, “One of the things that you can control is your particular passion for storytelling, for art, for what you want to say, your voice,” as reported by the Daily Mail.
Harbour noted that while early fame can be thrilling, he advised his younger co-stars to prioritize their craft above all else. He added, “I would love to see Gaten (Matarazzo) play King Lear when he’s 70 years old, I would like to see those kinds of careers out of them.”
