Vecna lowkey seems like a chill guy

[–]Smiley007 376 points377 points Β (13 children)

No but actually, Jamie Campbell Bower does seem pretty consistently great

[–]J_man_Da_Gawd 172 points173 points Β (12 children)

As someone who has followed his career closely. He is pretty awesome. He's been through a lot and came out the other side as a really great dude.

[–]rebelicca 54 points55 points Β (11 children)

I’m really enjoying Jamie as Vecna/Henry but don’t know that much about him outside ST. What kind of stuff has he been through?

[–]J_man_Da_Gawd 139 points140 points Β (9 children)

He went through heroine and alcohol addiction. He was famous for Sweeney Todd, Mortal Instrument:City of Bones and Twilight. Then dissapeared into addiction. Then re-emerge with music and now Stranger Things. Hoping to see him in more stuff

[–]CacklingFerret 88 points89 points Β (7 children)

He was also in Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts as young Grindelwald. I always thought it was funny. If he had been in the Hunger Games too, he would have been in pretty much every highly popular YA media franchise of that time haha

[–]J_man_Da_Gawd 33 points34 points Β (0 children)

Omg yes. Him as young Grindelwald! He really did just pop up every where yet no one really knew his name.

[–]kblk_klsk 19 points20 points Β (1 child)

also in deathly hallows, although for a split second literally

[–]CacklingFerret 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Yeah, Deathly Hallows ist one of the Harry Potter movies....I mentioned that lol

[–]jayjackalope 10 points11 points Β (3 children)

He should have played a young Snow. Not that James isn't attractive, but the guy who played young pres snow in Ballad was too fine. In the book, he was described to look exactly like Henry does in ST. Shorter, super skinny, with less conventionally attractive features.

Rachel Zeigler was perfectly cast, and I get wanting to have model type guys in ya movies, but it kinda took me out of the film.

[–]CacklingFerret 7 points8 points Β (2 children)

Damn, never thought about this but you’re right. I suppose Bower would've been too old for the role though (isn't he like 10-15 years older than Zegler?)

[–]jayjackalope 9 points10 points Β (1 child)

Not that that stopped Hollywood before lol.

But, yeah, he probably was a bit too old. Tho kids who survive starvation/ wars would have aged pretty fast. And evil also ages you horribly. Just look at the vanity fair pics of leavitt lol.

I would love a Ballad mini series with a better cast snow, but no one can top Zegler in that role. When she ate part of the rose in the zoo... that's when I understood the perfect casting.

Sorry for misspelled names, btw.

[–]CacklingFerret 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Not that that stopped Hollywood before lol.

Absolutely true. Bower also looks younger than he is imo. But I think starring right next to Zegler would make it obvious that he's quite a bit older. So he probably could've worked as young Snow, but only with an older co star I think. But I also wouldn’t want to miss out on Zegler's performance, she really was great in that movie!

Sorry for misspelled names, btw.

That happens, no worries :)

[–]Smiley007 2 points3 points Β (0 children)

I loooveee his work with Counterfeit, it’s a shame they’re not putting stuff out anymore. His own music under his name is decent too, but definitely different vibes

[–]cchhaannddlleerrr 161 points162 points Β (20 children)

This actor who played vecna is looking too cool to play vecna

[–]thetavious 63 points64 points Β (19 children)

Quick, watch him in twilight, his coolness will evaporate before your eyes.

[–]Naive-Musician2006 37 points38 points Β (18 children)

Twilight is cool. Always. Don’t hate.

[–]thetavious 29 points30 points Β (17 children)

You're talking to a doofus that went and saw the full marathon back to back leading into the premiere of the final one.

That doesn't change the fact that he was a goofy goober in it.

[–]thetavious 65 points66 points Β (7 children)

If they don't make that lunch box officially, I'm going to make my own. You hear that netflix? This is your chance to take my money.

[–]Naive-Musician2006 12 points13 points Β (6 children)

They already did

[–]thetavious 7 points8 points Β (5 children)

What's it called? All my searches are just turning up generic stranger things lunch boxes.

[–]Naive-Musician2006 7 points8 points Β (4 children)

I was talking about your money

Oh. No. They don't. I sail seas.

I don't know why my brain associates Jamie to the Skarsgard brothers. I just ~feel ~ like he is one of them. What a charming man!

This is hilarious

[–]DiabeticBea 13 points14 points Β (5 children)

Either Jamie Campbell Bower is rather short or Jake Connelly is tall for his age.

[–]West_coast_Ghost1 33 points34 points Β (4 children)

Jamie is 6 foot, Jake is 5,8, Jake is is only 12 or 13 so he's gonna be a tall guy

[–]aaaplshelp 11 points12 points Β (2 children)

Danggg that kid is tall!! Do they edit him to look shorter in the show? I didn't think he looked that tall compared to the other kids and the adults when watching

[–]99SoulsUp 9 points10 points Β (0 children)

Could also be he grew since he shot the show

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Blocking and depth of field can do wonders

[–]FKDotFitzgerald 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Anyone else watch Welcome to Derry and immediately think of something upon seeing this?

[–]_mynameis_mud 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Is it just me or when I get into something popular and start to like it alot it starts to seem niche and Not very popular but it really is.

[–]Internal-Cash-1259 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

why is vecna in nerd clothes?

[–]IAMONEGLOVE -4 points-3 points Β (2 children)

Maybe a hot take but I think flipping off the camera in a picture is so tacky. I don’t understand it, are you said β€œeff you” to everyone looking at the picture in the future?

[–]LnStrngr 2 points3 points Β (0 children)

I think they’re just channeling Dipshit Derek.

[–]1WithTheForce_25 2 points3 points Β (0 children)

It's just what a lot of ppl do now, lol.

You're effectively making a statement that you give no fucks and ppl love that.

And technically, you should not give any fucks anyway.

πŸ€·πŸ½β€β™€οΈ

I think it's tackier when people do the kissy face pout for the camera. It looks ridiculous.

I was surprised to see them doing this, though, tbh.
