As the Stranger Things<\/em><\/a> cast gears up for the release of the fifth and final season of the Netflix smash hit, one key cast member has been noticeably absent from the press tour. Recently, David Harbour,<\/strong> who has played former police chief Jim Hopper on the series for five seasons, has not been seen promoting the series created by the Duffer brothers.\u00a0That might be because Harbour is currently embroiled in two controversies: one involving his estranged wife, Lily Allen,<\/strong> who has recently filed for divorce, and another with his Stranger Things<\/em> costar Millie Bobby Brown.<\/strong><\/p>\n The drama with Harbour started when Allen released her most recent studio album<\/a>, West End Girl,<\/em> which appeared to share intimate details from their relationship. Harbour and Allen married in Las Vegas in 2020 and separated in 2024, with Allen officially filing for divorce in September. The next month, Allen released West End Girl,<\/em> which described multiple betrayals over the course of a marriage, though Allen has said some details are fictional.<\/p>\n Elsewhere, The Daily Mail<\/em> reported<\/a> that ahead of filming the fifth season of Stranger Things,<\/em> Millie Bobby Brown filed a complaint<\/a> against Harbour accusing him of bullying and harassment while on set. Per The Daily Mail,<\/em> the \u201cpages and pages\u201d in the complaint did not include any accusations of \u201csexual impropriety,\u201d and Brown was accompanied by a personal legal representative on set at all times while shooting the show\u2019s final season. Harbour, Brown, and Netflix did not respond to Vanity Fair<\/em>\u2019s request for comment on the matter.<\/p>\n Now Harbour is nowhere to be seen on the Stranger Things<\/em> press tour, which reunites the cast for the first time since the last season of Stranger Things<\/em> aired in 2022. While Stranger Things<\/em> castmates like Brown, Noah Schnapp, Finn Wolfhard, Gaten Matarazzo, Sadie Sink,<\/strong> and Caleb McLaughlin<\/strong> all appeared in a Time<\/em> video looking back at the Netflix hit, Harbour was nowhere to be found. He also hasn\u2019t posted the show\u2019s recently released final-season trailer, or any other promotional materials to the 8.2 million followers on his personal Instagram account.<\/p>\n The Stranger Things<\/em> press tour will see the cast travel to New York, Los Angeles, Mexico City, Buenos Aires, and S\u00e3o Paulo, among other cities. It\u2019s any guess whether Harbour will be along for the ride before the fifth and final season premieres on Netflix November 26. VF<\/em> has reached out to Netflix and Harbour for comment on Harbour\u2019s absence from the press tour.<\/p>\n Original story appeared in<\/em> VF Espa\u00f1a<\/em><\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
