Eddie S Guitar Playing Wasn T In The Original Stranger Things 4 Script

‘We have to do that’ Netflix “We didn’t have the idea early on that Eddie was going to be playing Metallica,” said Matt Duffer. As it turns out, the idea came from writer Curtis Gwinn, who made the suggestion to have him play the song as a means to distract the Demobats. “And we fell in love with that idea,” he continued. “We’re like, ‘We have to do that.’” Fortunately, the idea came before they had shot anything for the new season, so they were able to go back to previous episodes and sprinkle in little references to Eddie’s musicianship so his guitar playing wouldn’t feel like it came out of nowhere....
