Stranger Things Actor Explains His Break from Acting

Dacre Montgomery played Billy Hargrove in the Netflix show Stranger Things. He is 30 years old now. After the show finished, he took a five-year break from acting.

He says social media has changed Hollywood a lot. Before, movie stars were more mysterious. Now everything is different.

Montgomery felt tired because he put too much emotion into his acting roles. He decided to take time to think about his future. He worked with other young actors like Millie Bobby Brown.

Now he wants to choose his acting jobs more carefully. He does not want to compete with other actors. He wants to live honestly and make enough money.

He is planning to return to acting soon, but only with projects he really likes.
