With Stranger Things season 5 already hinting that it'll explore big plot points from the stage show Stranger Things: The First Shadow going forward, fans of the hit Netflix show have been wondering just how closely the two productions are linked.
Now, Vecna actor Jamie Campbell Bower has added fuel to the fire, admitting that the Henry Creel-centered prequel play directly "informed" his performance in season 4 and the final chapter. He assures viewers, though, that he was already "thinking about [his character's] childhood" – and his, presumably, unhappy home life – long before he plonked himself down in a seat at London's Phoenix Theatre.
