Finn Wolfhard has not publicly addressed his sexual orientation, so it's best not to speculate. He has only been publicly romantically linked to women, including his ex, Elsie Richter, whom he dated in 2021.

Rumors circulated that Wolfhard and his Stranger Things costar and real-life bestie Gaten Matarazzo could be dating after they were photographed holding hands while checking out real estate in NYC in July 2024. However, Matarazzo is currently in a relationship with Elizabeth Yu (who was also with them that day). Some fans have theorized the two were intentionally attempting to reenact a silly paparazzi photo of Arrested Development stars Jason Bateman and Will Arnett from 2013, but even if they weren't, why can't two besties just hold hands, regardless of their genders?

Tl;dr, we don't know for sure how Finn Wolfhard identifies. What do you think?
