'Stranger Things': From upside down to teen romance, here's proof of season 3 shifting gears

'Stranger Things' actor Charlie Heaton recently teased that 'maybe', 'possibly' there's a chance we would see Jonathan and Nancy together on screen.

What began as an adventure involving a bunch of kids in Hawkins, Indiana in the first season of Netflix's 'Stranger Things' has undoubtedly evolved, over the past two seasons, into this teenage-centric thriller. Of course, the threats posed by the monstrous "upside down" still remains. And yet in the middle of all the drama and tension, some new relationships are about to take shape in season 3. 

One clear evidence of burgeoning romance in the upcoming season of 'Stranger Things' is the "will they/won't they" couple Nancy and Jonathan (who also happen to be involved in real life). Back in season 1, just when things appeared to be taking a romantic turn between the two, to the dismay of many fans, 'Stranger Things' decided to drop their development in favor of other, better arcs. But that doesn't mean there is no hope for a Nancy-Jonathan romance in the future.
