The beginning sounded like an asmr😂

My phone fell put of my hands bc I got so excited wtf

I really wish that more people would cast Dacre in phenomenal roles

How are Netflix gonna go and make everyone fall in love and sympathise with billy minutes before they take you away???

The one person that disliked was the casting agent who didn’t take you in!!!

Whoever said no to you is kicking themselves so hard right now

In the beginning I thought I had clicked on an asmr video lmao. Ps. Small youtuber ❤️

I’m glad he shows that he went around 10 years without getting cast. This gives me hope.

i’ve never clicked so fast on a video IN MY LIFE!

*im really confused why this isn’t on trending*

When he looked directly to the camera, my heart started racing

Dacre throughout 50% of the tape was me when stranger things 3 ended

Your acting in season 3 was incredible it made me cry when Billy died. Keep doing what your doing, I can’t wait to see you in more shows/movies!

you’re literally just pure talent in a human body.

The role went to Timothee Chalamet. This is for “The King”

everyone talking about him in stranger things (which was insanely amazing) but this audition is actually so mesmerising, so freaking talented how did he not get cast

“Goodbye father” *that tear at the end* Oooo! That gave me chills

I love to see actors and actresses really putting themself out there. Showing audition tapes and posting it if or if they didn't get the role. You, I thank you for humanizing Billy. I thank you for putting in dedication for this amazing character that I love with all my heart. I can't wait to see you in future movies/shows. ❤

That last teardrop just before "goodbye father" gets me so bad!!!!!!!!! Pure talent

This is how many people got chills at 2:39 over the tear falling right down his cheek. 👇

I can’t wait to see Dacre pursue other projects. He’s truly a phenomenal actor.

I'm doubting my heterosexuality.

That really moved me. The whole time I was thinking about how real this felt. How you portrayed that character. Obviously I’m not sure if you got any details about this character, only the information about his dad but the characterisation was great. The way you articulate and quietly project your words and feelings are powerful. I’m kinda stuck on life and what to do for the rest of it, and you really inspired me to take up drama again. Thank you Dacre much love and respect x

thanks for the video. it means a lot really. what you wrote in the description is just beautiful!!

This is how many people want billy back ⬇️⬇️

Am I the only one who thinks he should do audiobooks? Ps: I LOVED the audition, this man deserves an Oscar.

Wow his voice was amazing... so powerful and well spoken

Dacre this was so good. You can express emotions through your eyes. There was no music, no context or story behind this scene, but still your acting got me on emotions. That's what makes you a great actor. You got a hell of a future ahead of you lad, you are extremely talented and I hope you know that. Love you mate

Everyone loves you Dacre. I'm so sad about Billy's death. Ughh.. please come back in season 4. 😪

I’m so proud of everything you’ve accomplished and are continuing to accomplish! You deserve all the love and happiness in the world❤️

tbh one of the best audition tapes ever. I wish shows would recognize his talents, looking forward to seeing him in more shows !

i am in COMPLETE awe. this is TRULY spectacular Dacre

"I love my rejection slips. They show me I try." - goddess of wisdom, Sylvia Plath 💌

English accent too, wow 😮.You’re soo talented and will go very far❤️

I really adore the fact that he posted this and said he didn’t get the role. Rejection as an actor is really hard to deal with so it’s inspiring to see someone go out and show that they still are proud of what they did.

This is amazing and such great advice! Keep pursuing your dreams no matter what! Super inspirational! (Btw you are awesome in Stranger Things!!)

Keep up the good work Dacre you’re very talented and impressive can’t wait to listen to the rest of dkmh

Their loss!!! You are incredibly talented and i hope to see you on the screen soon

I LOVE YOU DACRE ! you are so talented and i can’t wait to see you blow up even more ! you deserve literally all the recognition for your stunning work.

The fact you have posted this and are transparent in your work and efforts is amazing

I love his personality and acting all together. He's so driven by his fails and encourages others to do what they dream and we honestly need more people like you Dacre.

CHILLS 😭😭😭 also when I saw those tears I started crying too omg😭 get this boy an OSCAR!

i love watching these, you are so incredibly talented like i’m shaking

Hi Dacre! I can't wait to see more of your skills both on and off screen! You have shown to be more of a human than just an actor! You truly want to be art and not showcase it for money! Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to see you for who you truly are...a HUMAN!!

“Do not be afraid to take risks in your work.” - Dacre Montgomery

He used a good technique in this audition by not blinking for 30 seconds so his eyes would get tears. I’m a actor and I knew this technique too

Chills. Literal chills. Dacre is such an amazing actor and I can't wait to see him in other movies and shows.

Your work is really inspiring, Dacre. I definitely encourage others to follow your advice, everyone including myself are so proud of what you've achieved!

Keep doing what you're doing my man Your the best actor in the world your acting in season 3 was phenomenal and amazing...much love dude🥰🥰🥰

Man you just motivated me to get back on the acting grind so hard. I’ve been swaying into doing all types of content creation just to try and survive but this is true art. Thank you

This is no joke, one of the best performances ive ever seen, the INTENSITY, THE QUIET RAGE in his eyes was so palpable, the way he would enunciate certain words, THE TEAR ON CUE- ugh i *NEED* to see him in more projects that require this level of emotional depth.

Thank you for this Dacre! I saw your Instagram post and immediately had to find this. As a fellow actor, watching your work is very motivational for me. I appreciate your passion and can't wait to see what more you will bring. Love from the UK, P.s exceptional Accent. - Isabella Byford

How on the world dido you not get this part? I got the chills while I was watching it. You diserve all the awards!!!

So freaking inspirational. You rock man!

How are you not blinking ? this amazing. You’re so talented.

You deserve every frickin award king ❤❤👑

how can someone look so good while sobbing oh my god

I bet there was extremely hard competition in this role because this is phenomenal. I cannot wait to see you in so much more.

that was incredible.. i have no idea what the scene was about yet your emotion made me so invested. i have no idea how you couldn’t have got the part. you were outstanding.

This is why you are such an inspiration to so many people. Failure is growth and you aren’t afraid to show that. Following your dreams is the most reckless and sometimes heartbreaking thing you can do. It’s also empowering to know you can achieve anything. You’ve inspired me Dacre. I’m 21 years old and going back to college trying to overcome my anxiety . I’m going for a masters degree in creative writing and English. I hope someday to write a film or even a play that someone like you could cast in. Don’t stop inspiring young souls. Your different than other celebrities and I appreciate that.

dacre you are so incredibly talented and i adore you for sharing something so vulnerable like this. i’m so proud of you, you deserve all the love and happiness in the world. 💖

I really want to act one day and you have inspired me so much thank you dacre. I really love the way you express the true meaning of words when you act, it really hits me hard. You are such a powerful amazing actor and I hope you never stop.

The way he timed that tear to drop perfectly in time with his lines..........delicious talent

Your acting skills are actually amazing, and I might even say that you're better than some of the more popular actors. I love your work, and you deserve to be recognised more.

Jeeez I got chills from this wth!! By far the most talented actor I have seen 🙌🏼

You my man, deserve every award there is. You are AMAZING!!!! I cried at the end of Stranger Things, you are an all around amazing actor!! I can’t wait to see more of your work!!

This is great

I’ve never loved an actor more. You have a special place in my heart. Your talent is immeasurable and I’m in awe every time I watch a scene of yours. Can’t wait to see you get oscars and every other award out there.

dacre, i hope the people around you value you for your incredible talent and character. your acting is exceptional, your poems resonate with me like nothing else, and i would love to see more of your work/vision in design. you seem to be a gentle, kind, and caring soul, even despite your recent onset of fame. i can’t wait to see more of you, whether that be through film, podcasts, interior design, or something completely different. you’re a definite artist, and i respect and look up to you. never stop creating!

Watching auditions make me cringe, but they’re such good actors 😭

Dacre i want u to know ur so freaking amazing ur actor skills are so impressive i cant express it!

We feel the state of the character through your expressions and your eyes wow ! 👏

The way the tears fall down your face at 2:42 is absolutely incredible I have no idea why you didn’t get this role but I’m so glad you got the role as billy because you truly were outstanding in seasons 2 & 3 nobody else could’ve portrayed billy the way that you did & I really mean that you didn’t just make billy this mean typical villain you made him a human being which makes his story so much more impactful I’m so glad that you are getting more successful after this season because you truly deserve all of the success that comes your way.

Not only you are an incredible actor, but you’re also an ASMR master. thank you Dacre, you’re too good for this world

In acting classes, our teacher would always tell us that if you can master showing off multiple emotions, layered over one another, preferably 2 or more (ie: crying, looking sad, but also clearly angry, but without losing that sense of sadness in your eyes), and do it successfully... then you're abilities are limitless.

And you're telling me he DIDNT get the part?!?!

you’re so talented! you’re blessed with so many gifts in acting, but I think emotional scenes like these is your biggest accomplishment. you can really cry on cue. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

You're so inspiring, such an amazing person!!

It's CRAZY how Dacre looks so much like a young Rob Lowe from St. Elmo's Fire, which was made in 1985 and Stranger Things takes place in the 80s.

This is incredible! Your acting is absolutely captivating and astonishing. I was completely blown away by your performance in Stranger Things. Keep up the amazing work, I can’t wait to see you become much bigger and be apart of different projects. I got so excited when I saw this video😆❤️

Wow. As someone who’s trying to get my way through this industry I really appreciate your drive and commitment and your willingness to keep us motivated. This is an amazing self tape. I’ve already taken tips off you. ❤️

The absolute talent and passion from this man is amazing!

That teardrop at the end was so perfectly timed I’m so shook

You're so talented, I'm so proud of you and I can't wait to see what you do next 💕

I cant wait to see what the future holds for you king!

i wonder if this was for the king movie that timothée chalamet is in

His voice, i could spend my whole life listening to him😍

As an actor myself, this is truly inspirational. Thank you for sharing. 💛

Lookin forward to seeing you in another show/movie!!! You're such an amazing actor. Proud of ya!🖤
