Dacre Montgomery's Audition Tape for Billy in 'Stranger Things' is a Must-See for Any Fan

Dacre Montgomery played Billy Hargrove in seasons two and three of the hit Netflix series Stranger Things, and even though the character is a bully, he became a fan-favorite in part because Montgomery is such a great actor. The terrible mullet he sports during the show is redeemable only because he is so handsome in real life, exuding a charm that allows him to play the suave and terrifying Billy perfectly.

GQ must know this, because they posted Montgomery's audition tape for the sci-fi drama on their YouTube channel, and it is awesome to say the least. The first scene in the tape features the actor in a leather jacket, sauntering onscreen just like Billy would. I would have given him the role just based on how good he looks in the coat! Montgomery proceeds to read a scene from the film Stand By Me, which also features a bully as an antagonist. He is properly intimidating, so it's pretty great to see Montgomery then transition to dancing along to "Come On Eileen" wearing only a pair of sunglasses.

Montgomery then reads for the scene when Billy tries to scare Max by almost running over her friends with his car. He concludes by dancing once again, this time to "Hungry Like the Wolf," and introduces himself to the camera as Billy.
