00:00In Stranger Things, well, Vecna wasn't supposed to be a human character.
00:04It was not supposed to have a body or a face.
00:06Originally, Vecna was not conceived at all as an identifiable human character.
00:10In the early versions, the Fur brothers imagined Vecna as an abstract presence, almost a force.
00:16But during the pre-production of season 4, they completely changed their approach.
00:20Because a faceless male is scary, but a male who looks at you, well, that's much more disturbing.
00:26So they decided to give him a real body, played by Jamie Campbell-Bower.
00:31And Vecna is physically present on set, spending more than 8 hours in makeup each day.
00:36And the actors no longer react at all to a green screen.
00:38They are reacting to someone in front of them.
00:40And psychologically, it changes everything.
00:42The discomfort becomes human, intimate.
00:44Vecna is more than a creature.
00:45And that's why he's the most disturbing villain in Stranger Things.
00:49Let me know in the comments if you knew that.
00:51And most importantly, subscribe if you want more Stranger Things content.
