Maya Hawke Returning as “Stranger Things 3” Standout Robin Buckley in Season 4?
“Stranger Things 3” was all fireworks, especially when it came to Maya Hawke‘s performance as Steve Harrington’s Scoops Ahoy co-worker, Robin Buckley.
Ending with the duo looking for a job at Family Video, the fourth season is rumored to take the action outside of Hawkins, which leaves a lot of character returns in question.
However, over the holiday week, the official “Stranger Things” Twitter account @strangerwriters tweeted (and then deleted) a reply that insinuated the return of Hawke’s Robin Buckley in “Stranger Things 4”.
While this isn’t official confirmation of her return, it’s already got us excited for what’s coming. And really, how could they do another season and *not* bring Robin back?!
Best known to horror fans for playing Rupert Giles in 121 episodes of “Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” actor Anthony Head (aka Anthony Stewart Head) has passed away at 72 years old.
Daughters Emily and Daisy Head said in a statement to the BBC that their father “passed away peacefully of complications due to pneumonia, surrounded by his family.”
Their statement continues, “It has been, and forever will be, an honour and a privilege to be his daughters, and to have witnessed firsthand the impact both he and his work have had on so many. We know how dearly he will be missed by friends, colleagues, and fans of the shows he was in — he loved his job very much, and he always considered himself incredibly lucky, to have been able to work alongside such exceptionally talented people, in such wonderful productions, across a career that spanned several decades.”

“Buffy” actor James Marsters writes on Instagram, “There’s a hole in the World. Anthony Head has passed on from us. He was an unflaggingly kind and steady presence on the set of Buffy, and the best actor in the cast. He was the best of us. I was lucky to have known, and learned from him. He left the world a better place for his presence. Thank you Tony for all you gave.”
