Here’s the latest I can share based on recent coverage up to now.

- In early 2026, reporting highlighted Heaton discussing his feelings about ending his time on Stranger Things and reflecting on his career as he moves into other projects.[3]
- There have been previous news items about his legal issues in 2017, but those are historical and not indicative of his current activities.[2]
If you’d like, I can zero in on a specific aspect (e.g., his latest project, interviews from 2025–2026, or official statements) and pull the most relevant, up-to-date sources.
