On October 27, 2017, Netflix released Season 2 of Stranger Things–created by The Duffer Brothers, and the show’s stud factor went up a notch. This was due to “Billy Hargrove” being introduced–played by Dacre Montgomery–who brought some much needed bad boy sex appeal to the show. Despite being brought on to be an antagonist to our main characters, those shirtless scenes were sure placed there to appeal to the show’s female audience. Who could forget his shirtless shower scene with Joe Keery, who plays Steve Harrington. In fact, Billy took the antagonist role that Joe Keery’s Steve played in Season one, as Steve progressed into a much more likable character. Dacre turned up the heat even more in Season 3, with his lifeguard scenes. Will Billy be back for Season 4?
Before Stranger Things, Dacre Montgomery was best known for the 2017 Power Rangers reboot, where he played Jason Scott, the Red Ranger.
And while Billy’s hunk factor may appeal to some, Joe Keery brought the boy next door appeal with his character, and Charlie Heaton the brooding artist. Jonathan Byers–the outsider at school, sure stole the heart of Natalia Dyer’s “Nancy Wheeler” character in Season One.
Charlie Heaton is scheduled to star in Marvel’s The New Mutants, where he plays Sam Guthrie (Cannonball). This role should elevate his career even more in pop-culture, playing this X-men character.
