With "Stranger Things'" success and popularity, almost everybody wants to board the Hawkins train, and Drake is no exemption.

Hollywood Life is reporting that the rapper is "obsessed" with the Netflix series and is dying to land a cameo in its upcoming third season. A source allegedly close to the 31-year-old told the gossip site that "Drake's watched every single episode multiple times, and his hands down favorite character is Millie Bobby Brown's Eleven."

The two were recently spotted chilling at Netflix's official Golden Globes after-party where they posed for photos together. That came roughly two months after Brown went to his concert in Brisbane, Australia. Despite the age difference, the source claims the two always have a lot to talk about. Brown, although not a musician, reportedly has "passion" for music, while Drake once tried his hand at acting.

The source went on to say Drizzy wants to start acting again and would love to be a part of the "Stranger Things" cast: "Drake would love to start acting again, he's made no secret about it, and yeah, of course, he would die to secure a part on Stranger Things, even if it was just a cameo role."

Of course, this is not verified yet so fans should take the rumor with a grain of salt. Gossip Cop is not convinced of the rumor, noting that while Drake did voice interest in signing up on more TV and film projects, "Stranger Things" is not exactly known for any stunt casting.

Then again, the rapper is not the only one who loves to be on the show. Zac Efron revealed back in September that his ultimate Netflix dream is to be on "Stranger Things," and executive producer Shawn Levy said there are actually many others wishing the same. He admitted casting them was tempting, but they are determined to stick to the tone and to the heart of the show. As he put it, "just because those are available, that opportunity makes them the right ideas."

"Stranger Things" season 3 is officially happening, but it is currently in development and does not have a release date.
