And now, let us begin...
Argyle is one of the three new prominent characters that will be introduced in Stranger Things
season 4.
The reason we know this is because when Eduardo Franco was officially announced last November,
he was cast in a series regular role alongside Joseph Quinn and Jamie Campbell Bower, who
are both portraying Eddie Munson and Peter Ballard.
A series regular gets way more screen time than a recurring star, and is featured in
the opening credits of the show, meaning that Eduardo Franco’s name will be featured in
the intro when season 4 arrives next summer.
Argyle was first leaked in late 2019 when the industry outlet TV Line said that season
4 began casting teenage roles that were characterized ranging "from a metalhead to an entitled jock
to a character that sounds an awful lot like the twin of Fast Times at Ridgemont High stoner
Jeff Spicoli.”
Argyle was later revealed to be the Spicoli-esque character in early 2020 when Charles Murphy
from Murphy’s Multiverse leaked the names and descriptions of all of the new characters,
with the metal head being Eddie and the entitled jock being Jason Carver.
Then, on November 20th, 2020, a little over a year ago, Argyle was officially announced
with Franco cast in the role.
The description revealed that Argyle is a fun-loving stoner who proudly delivers delicious
pizza pies for Surfer Boy Pizza.
But more than that, he was also revealed to be Jonathan Byers’ new best friend, giving
hope to those who wished that he’d get more screen time in season 4.
We only saw one brief look at Argyle in a set video in August, and then this past Stranger
Things Day, we got our first clear look at him in the fourth teaser, taking the kids
to school.
“Alright!
Hold onto your butts, brochachos!”
Just like a lot of the new characters, Argyle also had an audition tape leaked beforehand
that revealed a couple of plot details.
Before I show, let me give you a brief spoiler warning, since it contains dialogue from season
4.
I would suggest to turn on the captions on this video since the audio is a bit bad.
The audition was taken down from the internet sometime later, but we included it in one
of our videos from last year, so we’ll just play it here again.
Once again, spoiler warning.
Let’s take a look.
“I guess a part of me, I don’t know, expected her to be on that plane, like, “surprise!
I came after all,” or something, you know?
But, she didn’t even call.”
“Did her gangly brother say something?”
“Like what?”
“Pass on a message from her or some sh*t like that?”
“No.”
“Damn, that’s f*cking brutal, man.”
“The weird part is, I should feel upset, but instead-“ “Nah.
You feel like, a sense of relief, right?”
“Yeah.”
“Like all that weight she was f*cking carrying around, is just like, POOF, it’s gone.
Like from seed pods from a dandelion, just floating around in the wind.”
“Yeah, exactly.
Exactly!”
“You see?
You what that did? you know what that is?
Do you know what that is?
That is the purple palm tree like working- it’s magic, my bro!”
“Purple palm tree…you got anymore?”
“Fosho!
My backpack is in the top pocket.
Go grab that.”
It definitely sounds like Argyle was giving relationship advice to Jonathan, who was expecting
Nancy Wheeler to come over to California for spring break with her brother, Mike.
Is Jancy breaking up in season 4?
It seems like doing things the long distance way is not working out for them the way it
is for Mileven.
But in terms of writing and character development, I think it’s good to separate them and pair
them up with other characters.
Pairing up the very serious Jonathan Byers with the comic relief in Argyle will be a
sight to see, same with Nancy Wheeler and Robin Buckley.
Here’s hoping that Argyle survives season 4.
Overall, super exciting times.
And that is all that we have for today.
Do you think that Argyle will be the breakout new character from Stranger Things 4?
