The Stranger Things star and musician Maya Hawke (27) has officially wed singer-songwriter Christian Lee Hutson (35) in a romantic Valentine’s Day ceremony in New York City. The wedding, which took place on Saturday, 14 February 2026, served as a rare public reunion for her famous parents, Uma Thurman and Ethan Hawke, who were both in attendance to celebrate their eldest daughter’s nuptials.
The star-studded guest list featured a significant portion of the Stranger Things cast, including Joe Keery, Finn Wolfhard, Gaten Matarazzo, Caleb McLaughlin, and Charlie Heaton. Other notable attendees included Iris Apatow and Kathryn Newton. The couple, who have been linked creatively and romantically for several years, exchanged vows in an intimate setting that captured the “wintry N.Y.C.” aesthetic.
Career Milestones and Upcoming Projects
Following the recent conclusion of the cultural phenomenon Stranger Things, where Hawke rose to superstardom as Robin Buckley, the actress is transitioning into a new phase of her career. Her latest projects include:
- Wishful Thinking: A supernatural romantic comedy where she stars alongside Lewis Pullman.
- Wildcat: A biographical drama directed by her father, Ethan Hawke, in which she portrays the Southern Gothic writer Flannery O’Connor.
- SXSW 2026: Hawke is scheduled to join the Podcast Movement Evolutions lineup at SXSW in Austin, Texas, next month.
Personal Background
Born on 8 July 1998, in New York City, Maya Hawke has navigated the complexities of being a “second-generation” talent in Hollywood. While she has faced the inevitable “nepo baby” discourse—often with a self-deprecating sense of humour—her father recently expressed “regret” in interviews regarding the “really hard” childhood she endured due to the intense public scrutiny surrounding their family.
Beyond acting, Hawke has established a successful music career, often collaborating with her now-husband, Christian Lee Hutson. She also voiced the character “Anxiety” in the record-breaking animated hit Inside Out 2, which remains one of the highest-grossing films of all time.
