The character McNulty plays in Stranger Things is Robin Buckley’s girlfriend.<\/p>\n
McNulty added that she grew up as “a queer kid in Donegal” who came out online at 16\/17 as bisexual.<\/p>\n
“We had people in my hometown going up to my parents going ‘oh I’m so sorry to hear about your daughter’ and I’m going ‘right okay, nothing to apologise for’, so it gives me more of an invigoration when I do roles like this and when I’m able to do things like this.”<\/p>\n
McNulty said she wanted to “do it justice and do it right for kids like me growing up”.<\/p>\n
“I think it is important, especially when the queer story line is a part of their chapter, whilst their dealing with monsters, in the 80s and there is all these other things going on, it doesn’t have to be about that. It is just a part of it.<\/p>\n
