The news is confirmed – Finn Wolfhard sported a close-cropped hairstyle prior to Stranger Things Season 5. The actor, well-known for his role as Mike Wheeler, set off a wave of excitement among Netflix viewers when he unveiled his fresh new look at the 2025 Crunchyroll Anime Awards.
Expressing it in a simpler way: The wait for the fifth chapter of the sci-fi series feels like forever. In fact, by the time Season 5 arrives, we’ll have already seen not just one but four episodes of The Bear.
As a dedicated gamer, I can tell you that just like waiting for the release of that highly anticipated game, sometimes production delays happen due to factors like the Hollywood strikes. But let me tell you, coordinating around the schedules of veteran actors isn’t a walk in the park! The anticipation has been building as we grapple with concerns about the maturing cast, adding more pressure to our project. However, the good news is that filming wrapped up in December 2024, so there’s an end to this marathon in sight!
Prior to its launch, Wolfhard received an invitation to speak at the 2025 Crunchyroll Anime Awards in Tokyo on May 25th Sunday. His Stranger Things co-star Gaten Matarazzo joined him there. Although the event offered an opportunity to discuss his debut studio album, it was his recent transformation that has drawn the most notice.
Stranger Things fans lose it over Finn Wolfhard buzz cut
During an interview with Billboard Japan regarding his debut album ‘Happy Birthday’, eagle-eyed Stranger Things fans spotted that Wolfhard had undergone a change – he’d parted ways with his signature long locks and now sported a freshly shaved head instead.

Another user commented on the Stranger Things fan Twitter, ‘I’m back and find Finn Wolfhard is bald!’ A different user exclaimed, ‘Finn Wolfhard, your humor is unmatched! Please don’t ever stop being bald-witted! Oh, hello?’
One person responded, “We’ll surely miss Finn Wolfhard’s hair. Soar high from December 23, 2002 to May 25, 2025.” In jest, another user even decided to block him.
