    "So I started when I was 10," said Millie Bobby Brown , who plays Eleven, in a behind-the-scenes video . "I'm now turning 20 years old. It feels very weird."

    Sadie Sink, who portrays Max, says in the featurette that she is "savoring" the filming process. She previously told UPI that finalizing the show was bittersweet.

    "I owe everything to the show. It put me in the position to continue to do what I love," she said in the interview .

    Jamie Campbell Bower, who plays the show's villain, Vecna, said that Season 5 feels even bigger than its predecessor.

    "And FYI this is a pic of Sadie, not Max," Duffer said in a comment. "Max is in a coma."
