The dependably loyal and unwaveringly entertaining parental figure of the younger characters on Stranger Things, Keery slowly became one of the most popular heroes on the Netflix series over the course of its five seasons on the streaming platform.
According to an Entertainment Weekly interview with Stranger Things' creators the Duffer Brothers, the siblings confirmed that Steve was initially slated to be killed off at some point during the show's first season.
"That was close," the brothers said of Steve's planned death in Stranger Things' inaugural season. "We just fell in love with Joe Keery, but had we not liked Joe Keery, Steve would've been gone."
The easily-riled love interest to Nancy Wheeler, Steve was initially presented as a cliched jock who bullied many of the show's foremost characters, most obviously his recurring frenemy, Jonathan Byers.
As per the interview with the Stranger Things creators, Steve wasn't the only prominent character set to be killed off in the series' narrative, with David Harbour's Jim Hopper also originally slated to die at the end of season three.
As for the decision to reverse Hopper's death, the Duffers stated, "Hopper still had growing to do. We hadn't finished his story. It's important to us to be able to finish the stories we want to finish and not just be offing people for shock value."
