  • Finn Wolfhard said he was "fine" with Millie Bobby Brown calling him a "lousy kisser."

  • Brown agreed during a lie-detector test that her "Stranger Things" costar wasn't a good kisser.

  • Wolfhard said that he "headbutted" Brown during the kiss, noting that he was 12 years old.

Finn Wolfhard said that he was ultimately "fine" with his "Stranger Things" costar Millie Bobby Brown calling him a "lousy kisser," after they both had their first kiss on set while filming the show with each other.

In November, Brown appeared in Vanity Fair's lie-detector YouTube series, answering questions about "Stranger Things" and her personal life. During the interview, and while hooked up to a lie-detector machine, Brown confirmed that she thought Wolfhard was a "lousy kisser," and that he hadn't improved since their first kiss on the show.

In a clip from "The Drew Barrymore Show," released ahead of the episode on Thursday, Wolfhard finally reacted to Brown's appraisal of his skills.

"You know what? I was fine with it," Wolfhard said.

"My first, like, on-screen kiss was with Millie, and so, but I didn't know how to like approach that in any way," he continued. "There was no, just was, like, 'You're gonna do this thing, and at the end of the take you're gonna kiss her.' And then so I just, like, kinda just, like, almost like headbutted her."

Wolfhard and Brown have starred in "Stranger Things" as Mike Wheeler and Eleven since the series premiered on Netflix in 2016, when they were 13 and 12, respectively. Their first kiss on the show was during that first season, and when they spoke about the kiss on a 2016 episode of "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon," Brown said that they kept it "young and juvenile."

Ultimately, Wolfhard told Barrymore on "The Drew Barrymore Show" that he "probably would have done the same thing" even if he hadn't been on a television set at the time.

"I was 12, so," Wolfhard said.
