Ekin-Su tipped for HUGE Stranger Things role with Netflix star and Love Island fan Noah Schnapp

LOVE Island star Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu has been tipped for a HUGE new role on Stranger Things with fan Noah Schnapp.

The actor - who is best known for playing Will Byers in the long-running sci-fi series - said he "DM'd Ekin-Su and she answered" him.

Stranger Things star Noah, 17, admitted he had been in touch with the Love Island winner Ekin-Su, 27, via Instagram messages

During an Instagram live with his co-star Millie Bobby Brown, Noah admitted he was an unlikely fan of the Netflix series.

As the friends chatted on the live video feed, the actor excitedly explained: "Wait also I DM'd Ekin-Su and she answered me!"

A shocked Millie, 18, responded: "She did?!" as Noah continued: "Yeah, we video called each other."

It's not the first time that Noah has been linked to the star, as he previously commented on one of her Instagram uploads.

"Yes!!!" he'd written underneath the post declaring Ekin-Su and her boyfriend Davide Sanclimenti as winners of the ITV2 dating show.

Fans have been left thrilled by the exchange by the pair, and hope it could land Ekin-Su a role in hit series Stranger Things.

"Noah Schnapp has been messaging Ekin-Su and them FaceTiming? I want this life," one fan wrote on Twitter.

Another chimed in: "Noah Schnapp watching Love Island and being an Ekin-Su stan is so funny to me'.

"Not Noah Schnapp video calling Ekin-Su, she's so famous," a third said, as a fourth wrote: "Noah Schanpp get her that cameo."

It comes after Ekin-Su revealed her shock after one of her fans has her name TATTOOED on them following her Love Island win.

The Turkish actress took to her Instagram stories to reveal how one viewer had her name, in the iconic water bottle font, written across their arm in permanent ink.

r Ekin-Su, 27, reposted the incredible tattoo to her fans, as she revealed her shock at her following's dedication.

The tattoo - which spelled out "Ekin-Su" in the Love Island font - had been placed across the wrist of the die-hard fan.

"Ekin-Su, please can we be besties now?" the fan had asked as they revealed the result of the ink, which sat between two other tattoos.

"Oh my," the actress simply replied in the re-post, alongside a heart eyes emoji, as she revealed her shock at the inking.

It's not the first time that Ekin-Su has been left shocked by a fan getting a permanent tribute to her Love Island experience.

In July, another superfan revealed they had decided to get Ekin-Su's name tattooed across their foot in a viral TikTok video.

Meanwhile, Ekin-Su was seen posing in an incredible dress as she headed for dinner in Essex without Davide Sanclimenti.
