During the after show Beyond Stranger Things 2, Sadie reveals that the kiss wasn’t originally in the script but was added later by the Duffer brothers which made her V. uncomfortable.

“It was not written in the script. The kiss was not written in the script,” she said. 

“I get there the first day of filming the Snow Ball, me and Noah [Schnapp] are walking in, seeing the decorations and stuff. One of you – I think it was you, Ross – was like, ‘Oh Sadie, you ready for the kiss?’ I’m like, ‘What? Nope! That’s not in the script. That’s not happening.’ And so the whole day I was stressed out.”

“You reacted so strongly to this. I was just joking,” replied Ross Duffer. “And you were so freaked out I was like oh, well, I gotta make you do it now. That’s what happened. That’s why it’s your fault.”

Following this exchange, fans have taken to Twitter to blast the Duffer brothers for putting the actress in an uncomfortable position.
