With Hopper ( David Harbour ) presume dead , Eleven moved to California with Joyce ( Winona Ryder ) and her kids Will ( Noah Schnapp ) and Jonathan ( Charlie Heaton ) , exit the brokenhearted Nancy ( Natalia Dyer ) and Mike behind , along with the respite of the crowd : Dustin ( Gaten Matarazzo ) , Lucas ( Caleb McLaughlin ) , and Max ( Sadie Sink ) . Caleb ’s sister , Erica ( Priah Ferguson ) capture the Dungeons & Dragons books Will left behind .
