10 - Charlie Heaton
Charlie is best known for playing Jonathan Byers in the science fiction hit and he comes in as the tenth most powerful star on Instagram. With a follower count of 4.4 million, for each sponsored post he could curate, he has the potential to walk away with an impressive $14,899. His co-star girlfriend is not too far behind him either…

9 - Natalia Dyer
American actress Natalia, 27, has been in a relationship with co-star Charlie since 2016 and combined they could become something of an Instagram power couple with their earning potential. Natalia plays Nancy Wheeler in the hit programme but her first acting appearance was actually back in 2009 when she played Clarissa in ‘Hannah Montana: The Movie’. Natalia has a follower count of 6.1 million but actually has the highest engagement rate of the cast, having a 15% conversion rate from followers to likes allowing her to bump up her earning power. Natalia can earn $20,480 per ad post on Instagram! Wow, that’s impressive!

8 - David Harbour
Despite being one of the older members of the cast this hasn’t limited David’s potential when it comes to charging a fee on his Instagram page. The actor who plays Jim Hopper in the series has a rather tidy follower count of 6.2 million pushing him just in front of co-star Natalia. David - who is married to singer Lily Allen - can charge $20,848 for every individual sponsored post.

7 - Amybeth McNulty
Coming in at seven is newcomer Amybeth who joined the show in Season Four to play Vickie. The 20-year-old Irish starlet was previously known for her role as the title character in the drama series ‘Anne with an E’. Despite being new to the ‘Stanger Things’ universe, she can still earn a good amount via her social media. With 6.6 million followers, Amybeth can charge $22,001 for a product endorsement on her account.

6 - Caleb McLaughlin
The Lucas Sinclair actor has shown he is a force to be reckoned with in the acting world when he was a recipient of the Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by Ensemble in a Drama Series but if the acting work ever dries up, he can sure rely on a few Instagram posts to help boost his bank balance. Thanks to his impressive 11.2 million followers, Caleb can charge at least $37,480 for every sponsored post.
7/11
5 - Gaten Matarazzo
Gaten, 19, has already had an impressive career staring off on the Broadway stage before hitting the Netflix screens. The Dustin Henderson actor takes fifth place amongst the most influential of the cast on Instagram as his 13.7 million followers allow him to command a whopping $45,955 for each individual post.
8/11
4 - Sadie Sink
Sadie first appeared in the programme during Season Two when she played the character of Max Mayfield and impressively she has the second highest engagement rate amongst the cast at 10.6 per cent. As a result of her 15.6 million followers, the 20 year old Texan native can ask for $52,078 each time she does an ad post on her Instagram. Not bad for someone who is only 20!
9/11
3 - Noah Schnapp
The 17-year-old actress, best known for playing Will Byers, is an advertiser’s dream when it comes to promotions on Instagram thanks to his sizeable following of 20.3 million. Already a winner of Teen Choice Awards and Young Artist Awards, Noah has set himself up to have a very lucrative career. It’s estimated that Noah would be taking home a pay packet of $67,727 every time he did a deal with a brand for a post on Instagram. We’re sure we will be seeing Noah as the face of a few notable brands in time to come!
10/11
2 - Finn Wolfhard
Falling just shy of the top position is Canadian actor Finn. The 19-year-old actor plays Mike Wheeler in Netflix’s leading show and he also has a music career on the side. Fans may also know Finn from his roles in Stephen King’s infamous horror movies, ‘It’ and ‘It: Chapter Two’. Finn has just a few more followers than Noah at 21.2 million allowing him to take second place. Per each sponsored post, Finn could be laughing all the way to the bank as he can allegedly earn up to $70,747. Nice!
11/11
1 - Millie Bobby Brown
Taking the top spot of course is breakout star and Netflix favourite, Millie Bobby Brown. Millie has become a real star outside of the show, appearing across a whole host of talk shows, award ceremonies and has even already banked herself a number of lucrative advertisement deals. The 18-year-old actress - who plays Eleven - has an above average engagement rate of 4.9 per cent increasing her earning potential. She has already put this to good use by striking content deals with huge brands such as Samsung, Converse and Calvin Klein as well as launching her own cosmetics line. Its fair to say that Millie is way ahead of the rest of her castmates with a colossal 48.7 million followers meaning she is earning double that of second place Finn. With her huge social media presence, Millie is thought to be charging at least $162,503.65 for each of her Instagram endorsements.
