David Harbour didn’t attend the London premiere of Stranger Things season five on Thursday, while all the other main cast members were present.
This follows reports that the actor, age 50, and his co-star, 21-year-old Millie Bobby Brown, drew attention at the Los Angeles premiere. They playfully acted out a comedic duo for the photographers, shortly after Brown publicly accused him of bullying.
While some think David has been avoiding public appearances following Lily Allen’s new album about his affair, he may have simply been unable to attend the premiere because he was filming the thriller Evil Genius in New Jersey on Tuesday.
David was spotted on the movie set Tuesday looking completely different with gray hair and a beard. Courteney Cox is directing the film, and cameras were rolling as he filmed his scenes.
Two days later, Millie, Sadie Sink, Noah Schnapp, Gaten Matarazzo, and Finn Wolfhard—Millie’s co-stars from Stranger Things—all posed for photos together on the red carpet, which led fans to wonder where the 50-year-old actor was.
Daily Mail have contacted David and Netflix’s representatives for comment.


Just a week before, the Emmy-nominated actor attended the Los Angeles premiere with Millie, appearing to have resolved their differences publicly. This followed reports that Millie had filmed a claim about harassment and bullying.
Importantly, the complaints didn’t involve any claims of sexual misconduct, and we haven’t yet learned the results of the investigation.
Millie and David appeared very friendly and playful in photos taken in LA, laughing and posing for the camera.
According to body language expert Judi James, red carpet events rarely show people being completely genuine. She told the Daily Mail that Millie and David’s behavior seemed excessively performative, like they were trying too hard.
She pointed out that the photos appear to show the two people playfully posing together, almost like a comedic duo.
As he spoke with dramatic flair, she lifted her hand to meet his gaze, subtly mirroring his words and showing she was thoughtfully considering what he said.
Then, they launched into a comical routine, striking matching poses as they looked up and pointed, seemingly sharing a joke and enjoying it together. It was a visual gag they both understood and found funny.



Earlier this month, the Daily Mail revealed that the British actress submitted extensive accusations against David before the final season of the sci-fi series started filming.
David has been a core member of the Stranger Things cast since it first aired in 2016.
David Harbour plays Jim Hopper, the sheriff, and is a fan favorite thanks to his complicated and compelling story.
David has been a core member of the Stranger Things cast since it first aired in 2016.
During the first season, Hopper takes in Eleven, a young girl with special abilities, after she manages to escape from a hidden government lab where she was subjected to experiments as a child.
The news came out while people were still talking about David’s split from his wife, Lily Allen, which happened earlier this year.
Lily was seen on Tuesday having a relaxed dinner with writer Jonah Freud in west London, shortly after releasing her new album, ‘West End Girl,’ which explores themes of infidelity following issues with her ex, David.
The two seemed comfortable and happy together while enjoying dinner, and they reportedly spent over two hours talking and laughing before each leaving on their own.
Jonah is the son of Matthew Freud and Caroline Hutton. Matthew Freud is the nephew of the famous artist Lucian Freud, who is now deceased.

They were also photographed together in September at a party for the band Oasis, which was held at the Chiltern Firehouse.
Oh my gosh, you guys, I almost died when I saw her out! It’s the first time she’s been spotted with anyone since all those rumors about her and James Norton started earlier this year. I’ve been glued to social media waiting for a glimpse, and finally! It’s happening! I need all the details!
The singer and actor were seen getting close while enjoying Charli XCX’s concert in London in June, after sources say they connected on the exclusive dating app Raya.
According to a source, James and Lily were very affectionate with each other, kissing passionately behind the scenes.
‘We were all quite surprised to see them there together, let alone kissing.
They hadn’t known each other for very long, but they had a great time hanging out backstage and really connected with the atmosphere.
The Daily Mail contacted Lily and James’s reps at the time for comment.
This date happened after the singer jokingly referenced rumors about David’s alleged affair by dressing up as the character Madeline from the children’s book.
The singer dressed as Madeline for a Halloween party at the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles, a nod to both the beloved children’s book character and her recent hit song of the same name.
Lily’s latest album explores the pain of her divorce, sparked by her ex-husband’s infidelity. A central mystery throughout the album is the identity of a woman named Madeline, whom Lily repeatedly questions in her songs with a pointed, ‘Who is Madeline?’

The popular Madeline books, about a little orphan who attends boarding school, were made into a movie in 1998. Hatty Jones starred as Madeline in the film.
Oh my gosh, did you SEE Harry Styles at Vas J Morgan and Michael Braun’s Halloween party?! He absolutely KILLED it as… well, whoever that amazing look was! He was wearing this incredible blue pea coat – seriously, the color was perfect on him – and topped it off with a red neckerchief. I’ve been screenshotting pictures all night, he just gets fashion, you know?
She topped her school uniform off with a straw hat, Mary Jane shoes and added a bright orange wig.
In her song, the singer expresses her distrust of David after discovering he was unfaithful, singing, ‘I don’t believe a word he says.’
In the song “Tennis,” Lily mentions a woman she questions her partner about after spotting a text from her on his phone.
I’ve been following Lily’s story, and it’s been a really tough period for her. After her marriage ended in December, she publicly shared that she believed her husband, David, had been unfaithful – including a long-term, three-year affair with a younger costume designer named Natalie Tippett. It’s understandable this has been a turbulent time, and she’s now navigating life after a very public and painful split.
When the Daily Mail asked about Madeline’s identity, Lily’s team chose not to provide a statement.
