As with Dylan O'Brien, there are plenty of roles this future big-hitter could play: Adam Warlock could work, and even Wolverine could be a good turn. But it's the shoes of Johnny Storm he could best fill.

The joy of watching Dacre Montgomery on Stranger Things is his uncanny ability to play both arrogant and innocent. Billy has been through a lot on the show, and done some pretty terrible things, but Montgomery's performance never wavered; he is cruel and vindictive, but as scared and conflicted as a child.

This is what fans want from Johnny Storm; the kind of young man who is both a cocky playboy with an eye for sarcasm and mockery, but also the guy who can make everyone in the audience understand his hidden insecurities, anxieties and complexities.

Given the fact that Montgomery is one of those up-and-comers who is likeable for playing a bad guy, he should have no problem making the Human Torch endearing either.
