David Harbour recalls hilarious 'fart' moment from 'Stranger Things' set: 'You just couldn't believe'
The actor gets candid about working with 'Stranger Things' young stars
David Harbour is spilling a hilarious memory from his time filming Stranger Things.
The 51-year-old actor, who played the character of Jim Hopper in the Netflix series, revealed that he envied his younger co-stars, including Millie Bobby Brown, Noah Schnapp, and Finn Wolfhard, for being carefree on the set.
“These kids were just enjoyable as hell,” he said.
He explained that many child actors can be very serious about their work, but the Stranger Things cast felt natural and free.
“A lot of kid actors that you work with are very actor-y, and part of the strength of the actors that they formed were that, at their essence, they were just kids,” he said.
Harbour then added a funny detail about their comfort on set. “During takes, they would fart and do things that you just couldn't believe that you had the relaxation to do that in front of a camera."
"I was like, I would dream of being able to do that and not being self-conscious in that way!” he remarked.
Overall, the actor gushed that he had a "blast" working with the show’s young cast.
“These were real, beautiful human beings, and they were such a joy to work with; I had a blast,” he praised.
Meanwhile, he described the first season as very special for him personally, noting, “I look back on that first season as being a miraculous time in my life.”
However, Harbour has also admitted in past interviews that he can be very critical of the show and sometimes has “very strong opinions” about episodes, saying, “I can be very critical of this show.”
