Mel Fisher, I am honored to meet Holly the Heroic right here, right in front of me. Come on.
You crushed it, bud. Thank you so much. Well, funny you speak of Holly the Heroic because
we have for you... That is fantastic. Who is this? That's Jimmy the Joyful. He's your little
Holly the Heroic. She's the best. Can I put it on? I don't know. I have a big head. I don't
I love this so much. Thank you for doing this. I appreciate this. I want to get into everything.
I want to talk about Stranger Things. But first, I heard a rumor that you're missing school for
this show. Yeah, no. So I am missing more school. Obviously, like in 2024, I was filming all year,
so I wasn't at school for like the whole time. Yeah. But no, my school has been amazing.
Are your teachers fans of Stranger Things? Yeah. So, I mean, I think some of them are. They
couldn't like outright say it, but I had one teacher and she was like,
Mel, meet me after class. And I was like, I'm like a massive goody two-shoes. I was like,
oh, God, what have I done? And she goes, so I saw the Stranger Things.
You're pretty good. And then she just like sends me off on my way. She's right.
She's right. You are pretty good. How was it like with the other kids on the set? Did you guys all
bond? And like, yeah, you did. What'd you do? Well, so Jake and I, you had him on a month ago.
He's the best. He's so fun. We would because we had to do like loads of schooling. We had to do
like three hours a day and sometimes we'd do more. And we had a habit of playing
Bananagrams and calling it English class, which obviously. Yeah, that counts.
You play Bananagrams? Oh, it got heated. Oh, it got heated. I love that. In the last episode,
spoiler. But everyone knows. But Mike kind of passes down Dungeons and Dragons. Yeah. To use
for you to start your own adventures. Have you ever played Dungeons in real life? So, yeah,
I started after the show. Actually, I got to keep my little Holly the heroic D&D figure.
Yeah, I took it home. And I have some friends who like already playing play D&D. Yeah. And they sort
of invited me along. But I love it. It's such a like a random game. You can do like whatever you
want. Like I was like, you can literally do whatever you want. I was playing one of my
campaigns and like my friends stole a river because apparently that's like the sort of thing
you can do. You can do that. You can do that. She just stole a river. Fun. I love that you're
actually doing this. Yeah. Are your friends intimidated to play with you? No, no. I think
I mean, I think one of the great things about sort of teenagers is that they actually don't
really care. Like they're like, oh, you know, I watched it. It was it was cool. That's that's fun.
And then they like go off onto whatever it was they were thinking about because they are actually
quite self-involved. Yeah. Yeah, of course. Yeah. But I like it. It's good. Yeah. Did you know when
you read the first script that it'd be this physically challenging that you'd be such a hero?
I mean, you were fantastic in this. I loved every scene. You know what I love? The very first
episodes where you had to hide from the Demogorgon in the bathtub. Yeah. Was that tough?
Um, that was I mean, that was awesome. We had we spent about two days on that one was like a
rehearsal day. And then one was like the actual filming day. But we found when we were filming,
we kept on floating up because obviously we were like holding our breath. Yeah. And so we had to
put weights on. So we would put weights on our legs, but then our torsos would float up. And so
we ended up putting weights like in our clothes. And I had like this moment and I was like under
Am I going to be able to get up? Is this going to be 10 times actors weren't acting?
This isn't working too well. What if you guys had to come up? Because you were with?
Yeah, so we would we would do like this little hand signal where we would just kind of squeeze
each other's hand three times and really just come up. And that means let's get some air.
Yeah, I think and I can only speak for me. But I think it turned into a little bit of a
competition. Just because like, through like start of the day, we'd be like down for five
seconds and we were like, and then like at the end of the day, when like before Iraq would be
down there for like 45 seconds. Like I'm not bending fast. Yeah. You also brought us a photo
and I don't really know what to say about this, but it's a little creepy. Can you explain what it
is? Yeah. So in like the pain tree, which is where all the kids are kept in the abyss.
We had these dummies and they were like exact replicas of us with like plastic faces.
And they would like put up into our little cocoons. And I mean, it was wild. I didn't I
didn't know that they were being made. Well, that's right. So I like came into set one day
and I saw this like short version of myself just like staring back at me. I mean, it was demonic.
That's creepy. That's creepy. Yeah. That's wild. I know that you and the cast did a lot of kind of
dancing on set and they taught you dances like Millie Bobby Brown.
Yeah. So in episode eight, Millie and some of the other kids, we all choreographed
a dance together to please, please, please by Sabrina Carpenter.
I was thinking you and I are going to do it now.
I will try. OK, I'm not. I'm not. I'm not known for my dancing. All right. No,
we start and we go, please. OK, I got that. And then in, please, please. Oh, like that.
Don't prove slice. Here's where I get lost. I'm. Yeah, right. We do a full, full 360. OK,
click, click, up, up, step, clap. OK, and then please more. Yeah. Oh, my God.
That means more. Please, please, please. Oh, my God. Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I know the
song Sabrina Carpenter. Please, please, please, please. And we're crying. Don't bring me to tears
when I just did my makeup. So nice. Did I do it to you? No, I would do it to me.
OK, let's try it again. One, two, three.
I can't understand you.
Whatever you saw, baby, it's just a nightmare.
You know, it's just a nightmare.
You got it.
Come on, this is a stranger. Things are performance from Louis Tomlinson. Stick around.
