It's not the love we are afraid of, it's the possibility of re-experiencing old pain again.

Dacre Montgomery (‘Stranger Things’) on filming his Season 4 appearance from Australia: ‘I put everything into this moment’ [Exclusive Video Interview]

Sam Eckmann TV June 17, 2023 6:30AM

“I like to do a lot of character prep and development and sort of live in character,” explains Dacre Montgomery of his acting process. The breakout “Stranger Things” star made a surprise return to the hit Netflix series in Season 4 despite his character Billy being killed in the previous season. His appearance was brief, but it provided the actor with a unique filming opportunity and the chance to put a final touch on a role that means a great deal to him. “It’s a culmination of hundreds of hours of work and really living in character in many ways,” says Montgomery. Watch the exclusive video interview above.

The Duffer Brothers called Montgomery near the start of the global pandemic with the offer to return for some pivotal scenes with Max (Sadie Sink). “And then it became quite difficult to leave Australia,” says the actor, noting that he was stuck in his home country while the series was being filmed in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Montgomery recorded lines of dialogue for Sink to work with as she filmed in the U.S., but it became too difficult a prospect for him to join her. To his surprise, production agreed to shoot his material in Perth. “They decided to shoot the scenes in my hometown, but a sound stage of the size that they needed, with a blue screen stage, didn’t exist. So they built one just for the one scene in Western Australia, which was awesome,” he admits. The costumes, wigs, and prosthetics for Billy were flown in from across the globe, and the actor worked with a local Australian team to put it all together.

“But the strangest part of it all was I was on a blue stage,” he admits. He had a tiny earpiece playing Sink’s lines for him, but he otherwise only had a tennis ball to act opposite. The performer describes the process as “highly emotional work,” not only because of the content of the scenes, but because of his deep attachment to his character. So despite the strange circumstances, filming by himself while in and out of hotel quarantine, Montgomery “put everything into this moment.”

Because of his isolation in Oz, Montgomery reveals that he had “no real context obviously of what was happening in the rest of the season.” This includes the setup that the villain Vecna (Jamie Campbell Bower) produces an illusion of Billy as a representation of Max’s grief, and as a way to lure her into accepting death. But Montgomery had no designs on portraying a new version of the character. “I really just wanted to play Billy for Billy, and give the sort of authenticity of the character work in that space,” he explains, “There’s so much core memory there of Billy and who he is. So this sort of materialization of him, it was important for me to play the character properly rather than trying to be an offshoot.”

Viewers may also describe Billy as a villain, but Montgomery is drawn to the discovery of what lurks beneath the surface of this kind of figure. “There’s this sort of truth in a weird sick way in the mask,” he explains, “These antagonists, or perceived antagonists, are trying to cover up deep trauma. So obviously that they wear this mask that’s outwardly facing.” During his time on “Stranger Things,” he enjoyed exploring what made Billy put on his mask in order to humanize the character. Montgomery had to mine his own personal fears and demons in order to tap into this facet of Billy. That process is scary, but also cathartic. “I think working with Billy, there was three or four years, however long I was involved with the show, of catharsis,” states Montgomery.

The fact that some people think they know what Elain wants, what she needs, what she thinks, what she loves and how she feels tells me a lot...

We don't have one word let alone one sentence about Elain's inner-monologue... and you think you know why she acts in certain ways?

That's weird...

#I mean y'all ignore half of the bonus chapter so I don't expect much from you lot...#then brown people are accused of not comprehending the text because English isn't our first language #*rolls eyes aggressively*#you know who else thinks the same way these people think?#yes you guessed correct AZRIEL #you know who doesn't speculate and gives Elain time & space and waits for her to figure this out herself?#lucien vandaddy #that's right #write that down #elucien #pro elucien #I won't tag pro elain or elain at all I don't want to argue with certain... someones

The scene where Ralph joins the hunt with Jack and the other hunters (including Simon he is there!!!) is very important… for one they start attack Robert in that scene. Which at that point isn’t like super aggressive because it’s “a game” but it’s the start of attacking each other. Also because RALPH IS TRYING SO HARD to be a good hunter. He wants to impress Jack (and everyone) like so much.

He keeps repeating that he hit the pig and Jack (and maybe others it’s hard to tell) are like “why didn’t you grab the pig?”

Also also Jack gets hurt and Simon is the one to offer how to fix the problem even temporarily (sucking on the blood)

Also also also kind of by then end of the scene after talk about going back for Piggy has happened Ralph explicitly asks Jack, “Why do you hate me?” And it’s so awkward for everyone involved…

And it’s after that they have the “well if you don’t mind of course” sassy exchange
