This weekend, there will be two things that dominate the pop culture landscape: Spider-Man: Far From Home and Stranger Things. As one hits theaters and the other hits Netflix, they're bound to dominate conversations all over. They also might have something in common: Both feature stars with crushes on Zendaya.
In Far From Home, that crush happens onscreen, between Tom Holland's Peter Parker and Zendaya's MJ. For Stranger Things, though, the crush is off-screen: Star Noah Schnapp (Will Byers) has a crush on the actress IRL. "I like Zendaya," he says in the latest WIRED Autocomplete Interview, referencing a recent interview she did for Spider-Man. "She was just here, actually, and now I'm standing in her presence."
The Zendaya connection isn't the only thing revealed in the video above. In it, Schnapp and his Stranger Things costars Millie Bobby Brown and Finn Wolfhard also reveal their Charlie Brown connection (Brown has a brother named Charlie, Schnapp played Charlie Brown in The Peanuts Movie) and experience some other strange phenomena.
