Meet the ‘Stranger Things’ actor at the heart of Doja Cat’s spat with Noah Schnapp
LA Times“Stranger Things” actor Joseph Quinn has found himself in the middle of a social media spat between his co-star Noah Schnapp and rapper-singer Doja Cat. So as Doja Cat pines after him, some less acquainted with the mysterious happenings of Hawkins, Ind., the fictional setting of “Stranger Things,” might be wondering who Quinn is. The 29-year-old British actor, now best known for his role as Eddie Munson in the latest season of Netflix’s “Stranger Things,” has been acting, mostly in British programming, since 2015. In his brief cameo, he had an encounter with Maisie Williams’ character, Arya, telling her, “It’s cold and we’re busy, so, you know, best f— off.” Quinn has also played supporting roles in the BBC’s 2018 “Les Misérables” miniseries, HBO’s “Catherine the Great,” in which he acted alongside Helen Mirren, and Steve McQueen’s 2020 anthology series “Small Axe.” “You have to take what you’re given and if you have the luxury of saying no, you say no,” Quinn said of his early roles.
