"'Is Joe Keery bisexual?' is a question a lot of people are asking after a slightly confusing moment in one of the Stranger Things star's recent interviews. And while we'd certainly be happy for that to be the case, it may not be the "coming out" moment that people think it is. Joe Keery is reprising his role as Steve Harrington in the fifth and final season of Stranger Things."
"The actor and singer (he performs musically as Djo) was in London recently promoting the series when he appeared on Hits Radio alongside Heaton, Dyer, and Jamie Campbell Bower, who play Jonathan Byers, Nancy Wheeler, and the villain, Vecna, respectively. During the interview, the cast was asked about their on-screen characters crushes. Keery brought up Disney's animated classic, Robin Hood, which famously sees the characters portrayed as animals. Both Robin Hood and Maid Marian are foxes."
"In response to Keery, Campbell Bower asks "the original?," while Dyer also asks, "The fox?" Keery responds, "both of them," though it's not clear which he's answering. By "the original" we think Campbell Bower means the 1938 Errol Flynn version, The Adventures of Robin Hood, even though Keery was talking about the animated Robin Hood. And Dyer seems to have been asking which fox Keery meant: Robin Hood or Maid Marian."
Joe Keery is reprising Steve Harrington in the fifth and final season of Stranger Things, which debuts 26 November. The actor performs musically as Djo and was in London promoting the series when he joined a Hits Radio interview with co-stars Charlie Heaton, Natalia Dyer, and Jamie Campbell Bower. When asked about on-screen character crushes, Keery referenced Disney's Robin Hood, noting both Robin Hood and Maid Marian are foxes. Overlapping talk in the interview made his exact meaning unclear. The brief exchange prompted public speculation about Keery's sexuality, though no explicit disclosure occurred.
