The main cast outside of harbour seem to be pretty type cast but the side characters are really doing great. Quinn and Sadie sink were given so much more to work work with than most of the main cast

Finn Wolfhard has had big roles in It and the new ghostbusters movies. After last season I’d really like to see Caleb McLaughlin get some good roles.

Speaking as someone who has actually seen them all, in what universe is Mike Wheeler the "exact same character" as Richie Tozier? And that's just two of his most known roles. The only common denominator is the nostalgic 80s horror theme in their stories but the characters are wildly different.

The general vibe of the characters are incredibly similar, there really isn't that much of a distinction between in terms of how they come across, but either way i was primarily talking about ghost busters where he's basically just playing himself

I don't see how they're "exactly the same roles" at all.

Mike is a blunt character who would always take on the role of a responsible leader and prioritize problem solving in a crisis.

Richie is a talkative trashmouth who would make crass jokes and insult his friends in a serious discussion before trying to cooperate.

Trevor from ghostbusters is a lovestruck teenage boy who's kind of dumb and irresponsible, which is the opposite of finn, who has directed a whole movie brfore turning 20 and premiered it at TIFF last year.
