Harbour, 47, made his TV debut on “Law & Order.” Within just a few years, he made his way to the silver screen. He played a CIA agent in “Quantum of Solace” and a neighbor to a couple in a troubled marriage (played by Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet) in “Revolution Road.”

Harbour lost 80 pounds in eight months for “Stranger Things” Season 4. Wheeler is jailed in a Soviet gulag, and his physique had to reflect that. However, he’s gained much of it back to play Santa Clause in the upcoming film “Violent Night.”

He’s slated to star in Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer” as a scientist who helped created the atom bomb in 2023.

Of his time playing the evil Dr Brenner, Modine said, “It made me sick to my stomach, especially during the scene when I tortured him [Venca] for having harmed Eleven. It was very upsetting. It makes me sick to my stomach. I have a hard time separating, and I don’t like it.”

Winona Ryder

If “Stranger Things” had been a series 30 years ago, there’s a very good chance Winona Ryder would have had something to do with it then — except she would have been one of the teens at Hawkins High.

Ryder’s career actually began in the ’80s. Her first film role was in the 1986 film “Lucas.” Two years later, she became a household name after starring in “Beetlejuice” opposite Michael Keaton and “Heathers” opposite Christian Slater.

After that, Ryder was the “It” girl of 1990s and starred in hits such as “Edward Scissorhands,” “Reality Bites,” “Dracula,” “The Age of Innocence” and “Girl Interrupted,” among others.

As well as “Stranger Things,” Ryder stars in “Gone in the Night,” a sci-fi thriller released in July 2022.
