Caleb McLaughlin Talks “Stranger Things,” “Concrete Cowboy,” and Finding Peace
Caleb McLaughlin thinks he remembers a quote from Will Smith about happiness: “He was saying happiness is like a moment, but peace is everything,” He tells Teen Vogue. “It’s within yourself, and that’s forever. I think it was Will Smith. I may be wrong,” McLaughlin admits. But unlike many child stars from eras past, McLaughlin always had a sense of reality, of himself, of the importance of his family. “Growing up in the industry… I would say most of the stuff is positive as long as you make it positive,” he says, his tone firm and friendly as he recalls his experiences in Hollywood. “It’s only negative when you put yourself out there and don’t ground yourself. I have a great team, and I have a great family behind me to help keep me grounded, keep my head straight, and just keep me focused.”
“Before Stranger Things, before I was able to travel around the world, I lived in my own world in small-town Carmel, New York,” he says. “Then when I was able to travel the world because of Stranger Things and meet different people, I was like, ‘Wow, there’s so much more to life than I thought. Everyone literally has their own lives.'” “I always knew “Stranger Things” was going to be great. I knew that it would move the needle and a lot of people would love it,” McLaughlin says. “I want people to be able to be at peace with themselves and understand who they are,” he says. “That’s what I was able to do in 2020. Spend time with me not about who I was as Caleb the human, but Caleb the soul, the spirit.”
