This month, Finn Wolfhard's dramedy When You Finish Saving the World is available for free streaming on Tubi. This film marks the directorial debut of Jesse Eisenberg and offers a more grounded role for Wolfhard compared to his work on Stranger Things.
After more than three years of anticipation, the final season of Stranger Things will premiere this month. The first episodes will release on November 25, followed by a second batch on Christmas Day, culminating with a feature-length finale on New Year's Eve.
Wolfhard plays Ziggy, a teenager struggling to connect with his strict mother, Evelyn, portrayed by Julianne Moore. Ziggy pursues success as a live-streamer sharing his folk-rock music, while Evelyn runs a shelter for domestic abuse survivors.
Rather than directly bridging their gap, they seek meaningful connections elsewhere. Evelyn bonds with a young boy from the shelter, while Ziggy awkwardly attempts to date a politically engaged student at his school.
"When You Finish Saving the World is a more grounded turn for Wolfhard, casting him as a teenager named Ziggy navigating a rocky relationship with his uptight mother, Evelyn, played by Julianne Moore."
Finn Wolfhard's latest film reveals a nuanced story of family and connection, complementing the final chapter of his widely acclaimed series.
