Sadie Sink by T-Bone Fletcher for ES Magazine
(Picture: T-Bone Fletcher for ES Magazine)When I meet Sadie Sink on a cold Thursday afternoon in January, I am also fortunate enough to meet Leo, ‘our very, very old cat’, who is jumping all over her. In blue jeans and black T-shirt featuring Link from Zelda — Sadie, that is, not Leo — she looks relaxed and happy. Tomorrow it’s back to her place in Manhattan and some time after that back to work, not least on the final season of Stranger Things. But right now she is in the Sink home in New Jersey, where she will later today celebrate her younger sister Jacey’s birthday with her family (the second of five siblings; Sink also has three older brothers).
‘It’s been pretty nonstop for the past few months,’ she smiles. ‘So it’s nice, over the holidays, to have two weeks when I know I’m going to be in the same place. Every once in a while there’s something. But I don’t have to get on a plane, which is good.’
