While Steve Harrington is now one of StrangerThings' most loveable characters, the Duffer bros reveal that they almost killed Joe Keery's character back in season 1.

Stranger Things creators, Matt and Ross Duffer, reveal that they had originally intended for Steve Harrington to die in season 1. Stranger Things first premiered on Netflix on July 15, 2016, and became an instant hit. Just recently, season 4 volume 1 released on the platform and will be followed by volume 2 on July 1, 2022. Throughout the seasons, each character has had the opportunity to grow, develop, and have their own unique character arc.

In the first season, Steve is a high school bully and primarily targets Jonathan Byers . While dating Nancy Wheeler , Steve proves to be extremely shallow and at one point expresses more concern for getting in trouble than about Wheeler's missing friend. His connection to Nancy though leads him to help her and Jonathan fight off a Demogorgon. By season 2, Dustin Henderson enlists Steve's help when he unknowingly adopts a baby Demogorgon as his pet.

When he comes back and fights the Demogorgon, that was supposed to be Jonathan’s dad... You’re learning what works and what doesn’t work. The cast is impacting where you take the narrative, the other writers and directors … it’s this living thing Imagining Steve dying in season 1 is quite difficult, as he has grown to become a staple in the series since. While he may have been a pretty expendable and unlikable character in season 1, he has truly grown to be one of the most beloved characters. While it's clear he still has feelings for Nancy, he has been content to let her be with Jonathan instead. Meanwhile, he accepts Robin's sexuality and becomes a close friend and confidant of hers.

The fact that the Duffer brothers almost killed off Steve in season 1 simply demonstrates how different things were back then. Back then, the brothers admit they didn't have the entire series planned out and were simply coming up with it on the fly. Without a concrete plan, they easily could've accidentally killed off characters with amazing potential.
