Jamie Campbell Bower portrays 001, also known as Henry Creel or Vecna, in Stranger Things, season four.
The storyline of the series "Stranger Things," which is set in the 1980s, claims that the series centers on the citizens of the small town of Hawkins, Indiana, who are subjected to a hostile alternate dimension known as the "Upside Down" after a nearby facility for human experimentation creates a portal between the alternate reality and the real world. At Hawkins Lab, Dr. Martin Brenner, played by actor Matthew Modine, experimented on a number of kids. Dr. Brenner tattooed "001" on Henry Creel's wrist because he was the first. Actor Jamie Campbell Bower portrays Henry Creel.
Henry was also referred to as Peter Ballard during season 4 of “Stranger Things.” Peter was a lab assistant who had a device called a Soteria implanted into him to stifle his abilities. Henry was able to telekinetically move objects and control people's minds both as a child and as an adult.
Who is Jamie Campbell Bower?
James Metcalfe Campbell Bower is an English actor and singer who was born on November 22, 1988. In 2007's "Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street," he made his big-screen debut in a supporting role.
He later made appearances in "The Twilight Saga," "The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones," as well as "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1," "Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald," and as the young Gellert Grindelwald. Bower was a main cast member of the fantasy TV shows "Will" on TNT and "Camelot" on Starz in the 2010s. From 2015 to 2020, Bower served as the lead vocalist and frontman for the band Counterfeit, which had a US tour and released its debut album in March 2017. Bower made the announcement of the band's breakup on their Instagram page in November 2020. Shortly after, he began to release solo music.
Bower played Henry Creel, One, and Vecna in the fourth season of the Netflix series "Stranger Things" in 2022. Applying Vecna's makeup required up to eight hours per day for the part. His portrayal in the show received favorable reviews.
What is the connection between 001 and Vecna on “Stranger Things”?
Peter Ballard made a friend named Eleven, who was portrayed by actress Millie Bobby Brown, while he worked as an orderly at the Hawkins Lab. However, Peter's true goal in approaching Eleven was to use their combined abilities to annihilate humanity. Eleven declined, and he turned on her. Peter/Henry was consequently sent to the Upside Down, where he would stay until he changed into a creature called Vecna.
In “Stranger Things” season 4, Vecna inevitably takes on the role of the show's main antagonist. Vecna has telekinesis and mind control, just like Henry did in his human form. His victims include Patrick McKinney, Chrissy Cunningham, Dr. Ellis, Two, Eighteen, his mother Alice Creel, and his sister Virginia Creel.
Where was the “Stranger Things” filmed?
The Duffer Brothers, better known as Matt and Ross Duffer, are the creators of “Stranger Things.” They also serve as the showrunners, head writers, and directors of many of the episodes. To keep with the original Montauk concept, the brothers wanted to shoot the series in and around the Long Island region.
The production began scouting locations in and around Atlanta, Georgia, because it was difficult to shoot on Long Island in the cold weather in November 2015 because of the filming schedule. The brothers, who were raised in North Carolina, discovered many locations there that brought back memories of their own childhoods and thought the setting would be a good fit for the narrative shift to the fictional town of Hawkins, Indiana.
The Duffer Brothers and Levy directed individual episodes of the first season, which was primarily filmed in Atlanta, Georgia, beginning in November 2015. The fictional Indiana town of Hawkins was based on Jackson. Other filming locations included Bellwood Quarry, Patrick Henry High School in Stockbridge, Georgia, for the middle and high school scenes, and the Georgia Mental Health Institute for the Hawkins National Laboratory location.
The Continuing Education Division of Emory University, the Old East Point Library, and East Point First Baptist Church are in East Point, Georgia; Fayetteville, Georgia; Stone Mountain Park; Palmetto, Georgia; and Winston, Georgia; the Georgia International Horse Park is in Conyers; and the Probate Court is in Butts County are the other locations served for the filming of "Stranger Things."
