It’s summertime in Hawkins and things look pretty normal. Billy Hargrove (Dacre Mont-
gomery) is the focus of the latest clip from Stranger Things season 3 as the show flips
the script on a famous 1980s movie scene. The tone is light and comical, which is a
pretty far cry from what the season will actually be when it premieres later this summer.
Both Billy and Max (Sadie Sink) have been added as fulltime members of the cast for
season 3 and they’re featured in the latest character posters to promote the upcoming
season, along with the rest of the cast.
Billy Hargrove is the lifeguard on duty and all eyes are on him in the new clip from
Stranger Things season 3. The clip begins with The Stray Cats’ 1981 hit “Rock This
Town,” and then shifts gears to The Cars’ 1978 song “Moving in Stereo.” The mothers
of Hawkins are at the pool waiting for the lifeguard change and Billy struts out to the
song, which is the same song used in the iconic Fast Times at Ridgemont High pool
scene starring actress Phoebe Cates.
Billy really catches the eye of Mrs. Wheeler (Cara Buono), who is the mother to Mike
and Nancy. It’s a pretty funny callback to Fast Times at Ridgemont High and it should
get some fans pretty excited for Stranger Things season 3, even though we don’t see
any of the original gang chilling poolside. Billy definitely looks a lot less menacing this
time around and even seems softer with his bad teenage mustache. Are we going to
see a nicer and more mellow Billy this time around?
