Jake Connelly Booked #strangerthings During a Tornado Warning

    You played his character so so well. Was it as much fun as it looked? I think that the filming process was probably one of the more fun things that I’ve ever done. As being a fan of the show for years before I ever was on the show, it was just amazing seeing how everything comes together and how it, you know, makes up one of my favorite shows I’ve ever watched. I have to imagine when you got that call that you were on the show, you were freaking out. Oh, yeah. Um, we were actually under a tornado warning at our basement and our talent agents uh hopped on a Zoom call and they said, “Jake, you’re going to Hawkins.” while you’re in the basement. Yep. My brother started prancing around the house, you know. We were so happy.

    1. Some people don’t like him- I can only think that this is because of some people not being able to comprehend new important characters, but delightful Derek is too good to not be liked tbh
