Stranger Things star Charlie Heaton looks worlds away from his character Jonathan Byers in X-rated BBC drama Industry.

The 31-year-old actor has waved goodbye to his high-flying role in the show, with the final four episodes of series five airing between Boxing Day and New Year’s Day.

But Charlie will soon enough be back on screens again, which is good news for his fans.

Workplace drama Industry – which is a HBO Max series but will be available to watch on BBC iPlayer – premieres on January 11, and will feature the sought after actor in series four.

For those who haven’t seen the show, it’s set in Canary Wharf and centres on a group of ambitious young graduates and their attempts to forge a career in the fast-paced, cut-throat world of investment banking.

Game of Thrones star Kit Harrington takes the reins on the company, playing British aristocrat Lord Henry Muck, described as the embodiment of ‘old money’ privilege.

Despite being in the trailer for a matter of seconds, it’s clear Charlie is the complete opposite to his Stranger Things character (far right as Jonathan Byers)

In the trailer for the new series, Kit is seen getting closer to Yasmin (played by Marisa Abela), whilst Harper (played by Myha’la) chats with financial journalist Jim Dycker (played by Heaton).

Despite being in the trailer for a matter of seconds, it’s clear Charlie is the complete opposite to his Stranger Things character.

He has seemingly ditched his 1980s teenager look for a more mature and put-together appearance instead.

Of course, fans went crazy on X as they saw a different side to Charlie.

Amongst the comments, people shared: ‘Forgot Charlie Heaton was in the new industry season so amazing’;

‘ST5 ending and then Industry s4 starting like a week later. Charlie Heaton stans winning’;

‘I’M SO EXCITED TO SEE CHARLIE HEATON IN INDUSTRY’; 

‘Okay booked and busy!!’;

‘Trust him, never fails to deliver’;

In season three, Pierpoint looks to the future and takes a big bet on ethical investing, as the company becomes involved with Lumi, a green tech energy company. 

The first season of Industry ran in the UK and US simultaneously, with episode one airing one day later in the UK in November 2020.

Yasmin (Marisa Abela), Robert (Harry Lawtey), and Eric (Ken Leung) will find themselves front and centre in IPO of Lumi.

Meanwhile, since leaving Pierpoint, Harper (Myha’la) is eager to get back into the addictive thrill of finance and finds an unlikely partner in FutureDawn portfolio manager Petra Koenig (Sarah Goldberg).

The show – which is created, written, and executively produced by Mickey Down and Konrad Kay – is a Bad Wolf Production for HBO and the BBC.
