I have a feeling that Dacre is going to become a big time actor. His dedication to acting is incredible.
He’s already lead Power Rangers in 2017 BEFORE appearing in Stranger Things. That’s a blockbuster. Great things will continue to happen to him.
But he's too short
Flying Spaghetti Monster except that movie
was baddd tho
@@flyingspaghettimonster8736 honestly, I didn't like him that much in Power Rangers but maybe it was also the character. I'm Stranger Things, however, his acting skills were AMAZING. I'm still mind blown by his performance.
If he plays his cards right, he could grow into territory such as Ryan Gosling, Tom Hardy...
Dacre was excellent this season. His portrayal of the broken boy underneath the bad boy exterior is done beautifully & poignantly. (See episodes 4, 6, & 8 specifically). He deserves an Emmy nom.
I didn't know he was Australian.
I cant believed I cried over Billy. I loved Dacre since I saw him as the Red Ranger. I thought he played that role really great too. Dude is just a really good actor and seems like a cool dude
I wish Billy have more moments with Max tbh. Their relationship is the highlight last season after Dustin-Steve.
@@tmseh I didn't know most of the cast in Walking Dead were British either ha
MrAdonis258 yeah that definitely would have helped give more depth to his death and their relationship but they probably didn’t have time in the filming
His performance was incredible. He deserves many more roles and success
Ik he was easily the best actor on the show imo
Absolutely. He was incredible
@Renee O'Shea Can you critique his performance since you are the movie critic among us ? What made his performance not incredible, in YOUR opinion ?
I thought he did a great job
He'd be great in a Tarentino movie.
“Good, you have a shirt on today” “yes it’s called acting Dacre” can SHE GET ANY MORE disrespectful???
Please. It's totally fine.
@@SJRD18 not necessarily
Right
God so annoying
I think people in this industry go out of their way to pick a character type to stand out. TV 101. She's the sass of the show I guess.
Am I the only one who feels like Gayle was being super patronizing to him? Mentioning him "wearing a shirt" to the interview and also say, "Yes; it's called acting, Dacre!"
So cringy, I'm having a hard time watching
Not the only one, she acted so condescending and rude towards him in that interview.
Part of me thinks it was a bit of a defense mechanism, like when a boy is mean to a girl he likes. It's quite childish.
Itzy Felipe, ahh that’s it, you nailed it!
Lmao I thought it was just me. I was like wtf.
Dacre is amazing in s3. Definitely deserves an award for his final role as Billy.
Nooooo! spoiler!
YES YOU ARE SO RIGHT
He deserves an Emmy for season 3.
I turned you 1k likes :D
Am I the only one annoyed when Gayle said “oh and you have your shirt on- yay” ?? Like he’s not JUST a hot guy with nice abs, he’s a great actor and deserves to be recognized for that
Exactly! Of course he’s hot but like HAVE YOU SCENE HIS ACTING THIS SEASON???🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤣
Hannah Freeborn he deserves an award for that sauna scene alone!!
Kelsie Carlos YES! I can’t even get over how talented he was!
Hannah Morgan factsss
gayle is just annoying in general. dacre deserves recognition for his work as a talented and passionate actor not just his looks/image
I wish he would come come back. Was it me, or did anyone notice when he was walking to the sauna and freaking clapping his hands, that he would make a badass Joker for Batman. Like I think he could pull it off.
Jennie G I was thinking the same thing. he definitely could
YES omggggg
There were many times I thought he could be the joker
Samee
thats the exact thought i had
Hes so charming and down to earth. Great guy
Alexandra Diaz this is like your 2nd comment
an intelligent man yeah, I like him a lot, I can comment as many times as I want lmao
U are so pretty
Gayle was rude af. Conduct yourself like a professional. And they kept cutting him short on his answers. At least let him finish his word ??
Sometimes interviewers feel inferior to the respondent and then they start doing all kind of uncessary things to try to convince themselves that they are on top. But well, in this case I think the female reporter was disappointed he was wearing a shirt ;)
Yes there was some tension in this interview. I think the interviewers were cutting him off because they know he has the spotlight and they don’t. That makes them jealous so they were kind of putting him down here.
The patronizing attitude of this CBS lady at 2:41 is reprehensible. "Yes it is called acting". What sort of statement is that?
The overall patronizing attitude of the entire panel, in fact. They were cracking jokes on hia expense the entire time while he was being honest and modest!
I noticed it too
They annoy me too
Exactly! How rude! Who the heck is this woman? And to say "Yea you wore a shirt" Ugh! I don't know who she is but that was so unprofessional!
it's cbs what can you expect?
Gail was rude with that oh look you have your clothes on comment
I know imagine they said that to a woman
And when she said “yes it’s called acting Dacre”
@@jordanparks6414 Oh my god I wanted to slap her so hard...
YES, honestly i thought i was the only one who noticed that she coming as pretty rude
Yes! She was so obnoxious and inappropriate
both him and millie's acting skills were superb this season.
And Hopper!
Millie’s was eh. Over does the little moments sometimes.
We can't forget about Winona
Have you forgot Charlie??!!
millie? nah. I didn't really see much good of her in the last two seasons. season one was okay
Best acting skills
Season 1: Eleven
Season 2: Will
Season 3: Billy
Yessss
Next Lucas !
noname
True
Tbh I think they are all amazing
Hopper Hopper n Hopper ❤
The way he cried in the finale while Eleven was telling him a memory of his mother was brilliant acting. He deserves at least an Emmy nod.
“You have your shirt on!”
“Yes, it’s called acting, Dacre.”
what kind of statements are these? it’s so condescending it’s obnoxious and entirely unprofessional.
Ikr
I was thinking the same thing, she was being entirely unprofessional and passive aggressive about it
I'm not sure about this interview... He is incredible, but I felt they were a bit condescending
Dacre did an amazing job of playing Billy. Hope to see more of him soon.
I disagree with him though, there's a big difference between being bipolar and possessed. I ST, he's just evil, not depressed.
hope to see him more? yeah I'd like too but he SPOILERS friggin died, idk how they would bring him back, unless it's like flashblacks for his sister
eric woriax in season 3 he is possessed and in season 2 he was depressed and violent and verrrrrrry bipolar
wolverineiscool I’m pretty sure they meant that they hope to see him in more films and projects, not Stranger Things
wolverineiscool She meant that she hopes seeing more of DACRE as an actor, not Billy
are we not gonna talk about how well he drops his accent-
Yeaa its sounds more american
He wasn't dropping an accent. He was putting one on.
Dacre is so cool and humble, today in NYC he took pictures and signed autographs,he didn’t care that it was raining. Class act 🤘
Not to be rude or anything but these CBS ppl don’t deserve him at alllll 😶
Truly. They kept interupping him 🙄
Dacre is such a class act. They were tryna down play his skill as an actor because he’s gorgeous but he conducted his self with grace. Would like to meet him in person, he seems sweet and well mannered
2:43 look at his face. Why is she so rude? They asked the question.
umpus I know ugh!
Omg yesss that was so rude I was uncomfortable thinking he was uncomfortable
What a cow
Look at his face. Why is she so rude? They asked the question.
Yeah that was pretty rude, you can tell that upset him :(
I wish they'd stop interrupting him and let him finish what he's saying, he's very well spoken and interesting.
When you're interviewing someone you're supposed to let them talk
He 's excellent evil. Handsome face , decent body.... reminds me of Loki.
What a JOKE it is now compared to the real scary and reality based season 1, it is just a new 10 year old girl and a lesbian w/ this punk trying to ride to coattails of kids to get his own self more roles. LGBT propaganda is everywhere w/ the gay Robin character and the general gay undertone of the series, even Mike refers to Will as "not liking girls." Worst of the 3 seasons by FAR, and the Russian involvement is a joke too, unless of course they include the rouge elements of the U.S. who work w/ Russia. But NO, they portrayed patriotic STUPIDITY w/ "military saviors" at the end.
@@GentileMysteriesConspiracies Dumbest comment I've ever read
DECENT!?
New Era Mysteries & Conspiracies I’m pretty sure a show is allowed to have gay characters without just wanting clout... 😐
@@dhrgkbqxtjr2743 no need to be mean. he is probably struggling with coming out of the closet.
You know I think this guy is like maybe too hot. I'm either a lot of guys out there that are like really hot or like buff or just like cute and stuff but I think this guy is like another category of hot.
Hot humble kind of guy I think.
Bro what
@@GentileMysteriesConspiracies Wtf did I just read
New Era Mysteries & Conspiracies they just said he is hot. I’m confused how that perverted. It’s not liked she’s 50 hitting on a 20 year old.
you do know that he looks very similar to Zac Efron right? just saying
Barbs and Billy deserved better.
Bob too..
@@evan2173 Alexei too??
TheBrabon1 That’s debatable.
@@tysobitchk I hope he gets gallons of cherry slurpees in heaven!
@@ruudboltz6677 I hope so, cherry slurpies and Looney Toons for eternity☺
NOT BECAUSE OF RACE but the girl was so annoying and she was cheeky the way she said "its called acting" shes trying to be funny but shes just being rude
Kody Murphy my thoughts EXACTLY
exactly i'm black but that what bang out of order .
@UCRi-UWC0_CejZxnA5gUEgqQ idek if youre agreeing/defending me 😂😂
Kody Murphy i’m also black and i agree she ain’t good at all
Kody Murphy Wtf u just sound like you’re complaining for no reason😂. Stop being offended FOR Dacre wtf😂.
“its called AcTiNg, DaCrE”
😐
I refuse to believe Billy is truly dead. They have to find a way to bring back this great character
The idea that Mrs. Wheeler would have turned down Billy's invitation for a private lesson is absolutely absurd.
right 🤣💀
Family first
Michael Albaladejo well Mrs wheeler didn’t show up either so she had no idea that he wasn’t there
"Who bullied you with those eyes?"
UMM I CAN ASK THE SAME QUESTION OOOOOFFFF
In the seconds I started liking him he gets killed. It's The Magicians all over again.
Who did that happen to in the Magicians? Most of what I remember from the end of the last season is Alice making a whole lot of stupid decisions...
@@mollie-wankenobi8655 That was the 3rd season, not the latest one. *Spoiler*
Quentin Coldwater.
@@korisx
Lol, right. He was honestly so annoying to me throughout the series. I do like the arc with him and Elliott in this most recent season.
@@korisx oh oops, I mixed them up
@@SharJ24 Right? The last one I was like. He's not as annoying then I was like, I actually like him, then ☠ and I was 👿.
Why is this creature looked so Adorable in real life while in Stranger Things his a Hot BadAss? DufferBrothers knows how to choose huh.
Dacre's a brilliant actor. When an actor makes you hate them then they're doing their job. I truly despise Billy but I have compassion for him too. Stranger Things 3 is on another level.
Why were they all so rude to him? But anyway, Billy was one of the best things about this season, Dacre is a wonderful actor! Super talented!
hes so smart and talented and well spoken. what a lovely dude! looking forward to seeing him in a lot more stuff!
amy donegan he’s got a podcast which is about poetry of the Beat Generation it’s on Spotify it’s called DKMH or just type his name in there it should come up😊
RachelTheVlogger ahhh I’m totally gunna love his podcast I just know it!! Thank you for letting me know about it!!
Extremely well spoken, charming, brilliant, eloquent, talented (future) writer, and proven method actor. Gosh, need I say more?
Love to see Dacre's subtle yet consistent awkward squirms as the the idiocy that is CBS talking heads, tries to ask him intelligent (but end up being dumb) questions. Dacre is like, TF am I doing here?
I think he deserves to be included in the group interviews. He's the best in this season by far! Delighted with his story line
I agree!
His eyes are so mesmerizing, it feels like I was being drawn into it. I had to replay the video cuz I didn't get what he was talking cuz I was distracted by his eyes
Why does Gale sound so condescending in this interview.. it turned me off quite a bit smh
I was thinking the same thing. It also irritated me that they kept stepping on his answers in their haste to ask the next question. Reminded me why I don't watch shows like this.
" it turned me off quite a bit" it's a interview not sex talk you thirsty swine.
I hated the snobbish way she said "it's called acting Dacre." I honestly can't stand this woman.
@@user-pg1fp6pc7z that's not what she meant you mongoloid
Lol
Dacre was phenomenal throughout this season. The particular sauna scene in episode 4 is my favorite scene👌👌
Question. I have not watched stranger things, but I wanted to know if he's on the whole show or certain season, you know to start watching 😂❤️
Billy Hargrove SAMEEEE! for mee that was the most memorable scene! The fight at the sauna between Eleven and Billy! 👏🏼
@@StevieMichelle im 3 weeks late but he's in Season 2 & 3!
Who else noticed the absolute shadow of sadness that filled his eyes when the lady brought up his childhood bully trauma
i didnt liked the billy character on s2 but its damn sexy in s3 love that dark story of him and not to mention his physical changes even they arent r much but i looove it
Lol he was not amused by the "oh you have your shirt on" comment
Gale doesn't even realize that she just comes off rude AF.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Australians are beautiful people! Dacre, Margot Robbie, Chris Hemsworth, Hugh Jackman, and the list goes on!

Trust me we don’t all look this, you only see the attractive people getting famous
Heath Ledger
His character is the most authentic portrayal of the eighties “guy”. I grew up in that time and could swear he went to my high school!
He seems like a really kind, thoughtful, young man. I really enjoyed watching Stranger Things (all the seasons) and he did an amazing job - especially in season 3. I thought the scene with the abusive father did really add a lot to his character. 💔
2:40 they asked the question, why is she being so rude?
He is an extremely attractive person. Not just his looks but he is so charming and down to earth. And an incredible actor I might add
Give this man a platform, he is an amazing soul. I hope he never forgets to remain humble.
2:43 please watch Dacre's face after that stupid comment, yeah he felt it.
he did such an incredible job playing billy and i'm gonna miss him
He did such an amazing job on Billy, some of his scenes gave me goosebumps! Very chilling. Watching this just confirms how much energy he put into his role 😊
In this season we got to see how much potential he has, hope he will get more amazing roles.
He seems so genuinely humble. Talented and super nice, wow.
I just saw this interview,,,,, and came here to watch it AGAIN!!!! OMG! He's a dreamboat 😍
Dacre Montgomery would be an interesting person to have conversations with. Hearing a lot of depth as a person
This show is packed full of great performances but I think he genuinely gave the best performance in Season 3. How can you not be moved by his character's struggle and how well he fleshed out with his acting?
I could listen to him talk all day. His voice is so smooth.
All those bullies who bullied u regret bullying u now
Does her makeup not wash off in the pool? Lol WTF.
Randy H That’s exactly what I was thinking it’s like how is her mascara not running?!?
If you take a closer look her neck is all yellow when she gets out the water.
I mean there’s like REALLY expensive waterproof foundation, blush and eyeshadow but it’s A LOT of money. Waterproof mascara is pretty easy to find though.
she was swimming on her back. she didn’t have foundation on either so her eyes and lips weren’t wet
there’s something called waterproof makeup
He deserves so much!! His acting skills are on point an he added a good twist to his character
Honestly he was the very best actor at this season
His performance this season was insane. He is played the character so wel
No matter what I shed a tear when he died, he was my favorite character.
I really wish season 4 will come out soon if it even is coming
Congrats, ur the first commenter
It’s coming, many of the actors have confirmed it
He deserves an award for his role in Stranger Things. 👏
His character and the way he portrayed it was beYOND brilliant, he was so frkn great, it was crazy
That awkward look on his face nxndhdjsjssh 1:00
Ima miss Billy. I actually quite enjoyed him.
OK, so all those pieces made this season and gave Billy an emotional thread.... and they were all his idea! Kudos!
i went how the interviewers asked the questions but i like the way how he handles it.
What a well rounded, level headed young man. i wish him well for the future!!
He is SUCH a wonderful actor it blows my mind. I think he’s best I’ve ever seen
Best actor on the show imo. The guy nails every scene.
I loved Dacre in Stranger Things man. Awaiting for his movies!
I love you Dacre
All the casts were amazing but Dacre really stood out in his performance.
he deserves an emmy nomination with this acting
He is one of the best actors I’ve ever seen, all the cry scenes and the screaming scenes were INSANE
He did such a beautiful job. Im gonna miss Billy in ST.
Dacre was amazing this season!!! Just finished it today!!’ 😱😭😍
I think he’d play an amazing character if they ever did an remake of The lost boys
I’m mad I really didn’t like Billy in season 2 but now that we understand his story i want him back in season 4 😭
He was awesome! Last season, you barely get to know him but he was so intense...he’s then super skeevy in the beginning of this season, yet you end up feeling compassion for him.... and p.s. his eyelashes....OMG!!!
he looks kinda nervous in this :(
Incredible performance in season 3! You can see he really put a lot of effort into his character.
5:20 Take a shot every time his accent changes.
His look at 2:50 low key broke my heart
Omg same...💔
He’s so nervous in the beginning, but man is he just a complete star. He’s incredible
Interviewer: _"Who bullied you with those eyes?"_
*She was so rude to my boo 😡*
I like how even the guy was like you’d be good in romance. Ummm yes please😻 we need more broken hearts gallery movies from him
Was my fav character this season
Robin’s comments are so dumb. Sometimes if you gotta stay quiet. “You have your shirt on ..yay” “it’s called acting”
Yes, thank Robin.
That's not Robin, it's Gayle King.
he is such a beautiful human being, inside and out
I cant stop watching
