5 Cool Guys From '80s Movies Who Steve From Stranger Things Reminds You Of

I fell into a deep, dark hole over the weekend. Its name? Stranger Things. There's a lot to love about Netflix's creepy new series, but I could not get enough of Steve. Sure, he's kind of a jerk, but he's also strangely lovable. From his feathery hair to his cocky attitude, Steve (played by Chicago Fire's Joe Keery) is the perfect '80s throwback. Here are the five original '80s dudes who could have inspired Steve!

OK, Bryan the hot dog guy is pure goofball, but something about Josh Charles's face reminds me so much of Steve.

Cool kid pining for the outsider girl? That's so Jake (Michael Schoeffling).

Everything about Dan (George Newbern), from his cool guy sweater to his know-it-all grin, is totally Steve.

And finally, this list wouldn't be complete without Andrew Clark (Emilio Estevez), the jock ringleader of The Breakfast Club. He's a cool guy and he's done some sh*tty things, but he still has a heart of gold.
