Yesterday, Netflix announced four new actors for Stranger Things 4,
with the most prominent one being Amybeth McNulty from “Anne with an E.” She will play Vickie,
a cool, fast-talking band nerd who catches the eye of one of our beloved heroes. Her character
was first leaked by Murphy’s Multiverse back in early 2020 before the pandemic began,
where she was described as “the stereotypical alt-girl whose unapproachable appearance belies
her light-heartedness. It seems like Vickie might prove as an ally to the gang as the season
develops.” A few weeks ago, there was a lot of speculation of Amybeth McNulty joining and the
show and even more speculation that she would play Robin’s girlfriend, the number one theory about
the character Vickie herself. These rumors came from the fact that she followed Maya Hawke and
the person that does the makeup and hairstyles. With this new, official character description,
it definitely sounds like Vickie will become Robin’s love interest in season 4.
To add even more fuel to the fire, there was an audition tape for Vickie leaked
literally a day or two before the rumors about Amybeth McNulty came out on Twitter.
I will play this audition for you all, but before I show you, here’s a big and fat spoiler warning.
This audition will contain dialogue that will be featured in season 4 as well as giving us an in
depth look at how Vickie will be as a character. Once again, spoiler warning. Let’s take a look.
“I found another bar of peanut butter. Crunchy style…
Clara?” “Hey.” “What are you doing here?” “Just um, doing some PB & Js.”
“Right. Yeah. Duhhhhhh. Of course, I’m also doing PB & Js as it so happens.
Hey, uh, I’m sorry if that came out weird; “what are you doing here.” It wasn’t meant like “what
are YOU doing here.” I meant it like what, “what are you doing here?” Like, wow. Like,
that’s a surprise. Awesome to see you.” “Yeah, I didn’t take it as anything negative.”
“Ok, good. Its just, I don’t know, my brain’s been a little frazzled lately because
well,” “Everything.” “Yeah, and also Dan. He’s my boyfriend, was my boyfriend.
He was visiting and he took one look at all this and let’s just say it’s not what he envisioned for
his spring break, so he was like “I’m out of here, back to Purdue. Good luck, Vick.” Which, you know,
is ultimately fine. Bordering on good because he was really grating on me. I mean
he chews really loudly like right over my shoulder, and he just has all around bad
taste. He’s the kind of person that trashes Fast Times because it doesn’t have a plot.
As soon as he said that, I should’ve just ended things right there and then, because…..oh
my God. I’m sorry, I’m rambling, I’m totally rambling about my dumb boyfriend
cause there’s people out there suffering and they need food and,
now I’ve created a peanut butter on peanut butter monstrosity. Awesome.
I don’t know what’s wrong with me. Sometimes,
I don’t know, it’s like my mouth is moving faster than my brain.
Like, a runaway train, and I can’t seem to stop it no matter how hard I try.
Do you know what I mean?” “Yeah, I think I know what you mean.”
Well, that was interesting. It seems like Vickie is indeed talking to Robin,
which is interesting because in another previous audition for this character,
it looked like she was talking to Robin as well. Could Vickie end up becoming Robin’s girlfriend?
That would certainly be a good character arc for Robin, finding love inside a small Indiana town
in the 80s. There is even more evidence suggesting that she’s her girlfriend because much like Robin,
Vickie is also a band geek. Much like the previous audition for Vickie,
it sound like Hawkins is going through a form of mass hysteria, which does go along
with what we’ve seen in recent set photos at the high school. It sounds like Vickie
is volunteering to help at the emergency center set up by the military outside of Hawkins High,
so it definitely looks like the town is going through some state of panic. As for how Vickie
can join on the action and help out our team, anything is quite possible. It is also a sad
possibility that her character will be killed off because this is a horror show after all.
If Vickie dies after confessing her love for Robin, it would definitely break our hearts.
Here’s hoping that we get to hear more from Vickie very soon. Overall, very exciting times.
And that is all that we have for today. What do you think about Amybeth McNulty as Vickie? Is
Vickie going to become your favorite new character in Stranger Things 4?
