What TV shows and movies has Finn Wolfhard been in?

For a fuller list of his credits, read Finn Wolfhard movies and TV shows filmography.

The catch

Two titles carry the confirmed record, so his filmography looks thinner in sourced form than it does in a long list of credits. Any extra title should wait for a primary or established source.

The implication: Stranger Things defines his screen work, and the rest of the filmography needs sourcing before it is repeated.

What band is Finn Wolfhard in?

The name of his band is not established in the sources available for this article, so this piece does not name one.

His music work is easier to pin down, starting with a second album.

What is Finn Wolfhard’s second album?

  • The album is titled Fire From The Hip.
  • According to his official Instagram account, the album is out now.

The implication: the album is real and promoted, but its release status rests on a social post, so readers should treat the date as open.

What to watch

Relationship stories spread faster than the records that could check them. Only publicly confirmed details should anchor any claim about his romantic life.

The implication: treat any named partner as rumor until a Tier 1 or Tier 2 outlet reports it.

Who are the actors in Stranger Things season 5?
