Unfortunately, we’re here. So, if you don’t mind, put that thing away, stop behaving like a jackass, and ask him what he’s doing that’s making my magnets fall off my damn fridge! Please.
Winona Ryder as Joyce Byers Stranger Things (2019)
“You’re upset, right? ‘Cause I, uh I blew up the car? Yeah, with me in it. Well, I just want to remind you of something, Joyce. I am not a mechanic. Yeah, clearly.”
Did you and Millie do some prep work together to better understand the motivations of your characters? Or just to get more comfortable with one another, given the intensity of the scenes you share?
God, yeah, it was really intense. Most of the scenes I’m chasing her as opposed to working directly with her as two actors paired together, but it was still a significant mental challenge. Millie and I gave 200 percent in every scene we did together. It was easy to meet each other with that level of passion in the moment. While filming that final scene, we would scream at each other between takes to warm each other up, just trying to be emotionally connected the entire time. We were giving and receiving all of those emotions, and it was like that for the entire season. And we would both comfort each other after those moments. I would reassure her that we’re safe, we’re gonna be okay, and that I’m not gonna actually hurt her.
