‘I'm living my truth': Dacre Montgomery about taking a step back from Hollywood
Dacre Montgomery, known for his role as Billy Hargrove in Netflix 's Stranger Things, has explained his decision to step back from the Hollywood spotlight.
The Australian actor stated that social media has eroded the 'mystery' surrounding traditional Hollywood stars, influencing his choice to retreat for the past five years.
Since his character's death in Stranger Things season three, Montgomery has taken on only a few projects, including roles in Elvis and Spider & Jessie.
He previously told The Independent in 2019 that he intended to be selective about future roles, mentioning a romantic comedy and a beat poetry podcast.
Montgomery emphasized that he is living his own truth and not competing with others, while aiming to cover his living expenses.
